Optimal is 3 times. If you get control with just morning and night, twice is ok... 30 minutes before eating is preferable, but with meals and just after is ok too, for me anyway, but my wife recommends 30 minutes prior to eating as herbs slow to work...
Look, I've been there, thinking the end was near with no ability to control, but don't give up. There is a right combination of things you can do to boost metabolism and control BG, just keep searching for it through experimenting.
For me, when I'm not eating erratically, eating whole foods and avoiding artificial sweeteners, flavorings, pre-packaged and pre-mixed foods, etc... seems to work best for me. So, perhaps, for me my metabolism is messed up not only by refined sugars but all the additives etc. that I can live without when eating whole fresh foods....
Something that we have or don't have, do or don't do, is causing our diabetic condition in my opinion and if that something is eliminated or added, whichever the case may be, I think we can find control.....
Journal, monitor and change what isn't working until you stumble onto something that is....
