[QUOTE="smidge, post: 764158, member: 29301"] Hi Elaine, I use the Mobile and was convinced it was reading high. I tested using two meters for a few days and the Mobile was always pretty much the same as the other meter. The only times it was high was when I was way out of range. For example, a 12 something would read as 15 something. I reached the conclusion that it is a great meter in normal BG range but extremely temperamental at high levels. It also seems very sensitive to any contaminants on your finger - you really do have to wash and dry hands properly before testing. Like the others, I find the error codes problematic - especially when it claims not to have enough blood when it is drenched in blood. Annoyingly, these are faults introduced on the latest model. If you go onto the Accuchek website and register your meter, you can order he control solution free of charge. Also, give Roche a ring and ask them to send you a spare meter - they sent me one with no problems. Smidge [/QUOTE]
