[QUOTE="SockFiddler, post: 1503775, member: 412001"] Hello, Community, me again with another question (sorry!). I've had 3 readings that I can't quite understand, and they've been different according to which meter I've used. Hoping you can help me unpick them: Friday, fasting BG (8am) 108/6.0 (Codefree) Friday immediately after an ice-cream (itself after a low carb dinner) 8:30pm: Codefree: 6.5 Areo: 6.6 Saturday, 12:30am (4 hours after ice cream) Glucomen Areo: 5.0 CodeFree: 101 / 5.6 Saturday 7am (Almost 11 hours fasting) Areo: 6.2 CodeFree: 119 / 6.6 What am I missing here? Why has my fasting number increased? Why didn't that ice-cream hit my BG like a train? And why are my meters testing inconsistently, from .1 to .6 difference? While I know they're all good numbers - under 7 - I don't understand why they seem to be so all over the place and out of order. Anything you have in terms of insight will be gratefully received. Notes: - A third meter is on its way. Hopefully it will agree with one of the two and then I'll know which meter is reading inaccurately. I don't want to just guess - All Codefree results (I brilliantly ordered the US standard units model...) have been converted using this page: [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/blood-sugar-converter.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
