I love my ultra mini. It is very consistent.

You have to realize (as previously suggested) that you are not under control. You could have the beginnings of neuropathy and this could explain why you have different numbers. There are way too many variables to say for sure.

However, I agree with the above. 99% of the time I am between 90-120ish (I'm still testing food so I can run accross these nasty 140 2 hour postprandials from time to time). I can test on five different fingers and all either match or within 1 point of the original readings.

Regardless if you are type 1, 1.5, or 2, we all have restricted diets. The longer you carry those higher number, the more you damage your body.
