[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 938583, member: 41816"] Where have you read that 6.7 is bad? It is a good reading. The NHS recommend being under 7.8 at 2 hours, and you blew that out of the water! Some of us choose to aim lower, for any number of reasons. But it is something that is always a choice, and definitely not obligatory. And yes, stress and sleep deprivation definitely affect readings. All i can suggest is that you try to introduce testing as a normal part of your life. You will soon discover that interpreting bg readings are more of an art than a science, and that there are daily variations, meter and strips vary a bit, and we all learn to take these things with a pinch of salt. I think you are doing brilliantly. [/QUOTE]
