[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1709863, member: 94045"] Using 2 meters just confuses matters. It is ridiculous and a waste of strips and stressful. One should be kept in a drawer for emergency back up only. They will all have outliers from time to time, but some of these will be low ones and some will be high ones. Over a period of time the averages will wipe them out. A very unexpected reading can be re-tested. It is pointless testing and testing just to make the level a little bit lower. Who knows which of the readings is right? No-one. Unless we need to inject insulin, all we are looking for are trends, and trends will show themselves. Test, record, move on. [/QUOTE]
