Bg Readings.....

[Grimm90999]

Sorry may seem like a silly question.....
Anyone know why your BG can be soo different between fingers. I did a test on my finger yesterday and came up as 3.9 so really tested on a different finger and was 5.1..... also if you re test on the same finger

Lots of reasons.
Meters are only required to be accurate to within 15% 95% of the time.
Capillary blood in our fingers moves and therefore changes rapidly.
Rogue strips (happens to us all from time to time)
Human error (contaminated fingers, damp hands etc)

It is normal, and more likely to happen than 2 identical consecutive readings.
