[QUOTE="BlueGreen, post: 447884, member: 89452"] The article I read said they're hoping to get the accuracy down to within 15%, but I don't believe they're there yet. I've only being doing this for about a month, but have done a lot of testing on my fancy Contour Next meter, but have got some widely ranging results. One morning I had a variance of over 2 mmol between 2 different fingers. Even assuming the real number was bang square in the middle, that 15% number is looking shaky. The way I see it, just how much glucose hits and is registered by the sensors on that strip is really in the hand of the gods. Use it is a guide, to determine how well you're doing and to spot spikes, but always be a little skeptical. [/QUOTE]
