Second, repeat the process after one or two minutes with another blood sample taken from the same or another finger.
If you only have one meter, then just do two tests on the same meter one or two minutes apart.
My BG was pretty high when I did the test. Here are my results:
Meter........................First sample...Second sample...Difference...Average
One-Touch UltraSmart............226..................248.... ..........22.......237
Freestyle Flash......................256..................23 0..............26.......243
Accu-Chek Compact...............239..................236.... ...........3........237.5 | I moved your thread to Monitoring, so that more people could see (& maybe partake in the testing of their meters) it & respond. I'll definitely try mine out later on. I have the One Touch UltraSmart, Freestyle Flash & Reli-On Ultima meters that I can try out. Are there specific meters you were looking to compare, or does anything go?
