[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 1879111, member: 408573"] I would be tempted to mention it to the GP in your shoes, if only to put my mind at rest. I am a smoker so my blood is said to be thicker (no idea if that is true or not) but I have only ever failed to get enough blood into the strip or rather the blood has not been taken all the way up the strip, just once. Don't sit and stress on it, ask your DN/GP or better still a phlebotomist if you have blood draws done by one. Good Luck. [/QUOTE]
