So I went to bed with a BS reading of 5.4. Got up a bit late this morning, looked out the window and saw I was about to get a parking ticket for having back wheels on the yellow lines .. grr! Slung a coat over my PJs and still in slippers (raining out) I flew out just in the nick of time and went on the great parking space hunt. Ended up round the corner and trudged home in the rain, glad I never met anyone
Then to get back to "normal" routine I did my morning reading and nearly had a heart attack! 19.9 OMG I was shaking. What had I done wrong. Did I have a midnight feast without waking up? Could stress do that? Anyway, O/H said "try on mine" so I did and it was 8.5 .. phew! Not great but better. So I had another go on mine and it was 7.5.
So I think I must have had a dodgy test strip or my machine had a wobbly? Do you think I'm right. Is it possible that a bit of stress could put figure up that much and then drop so quickly?
