[QUOTE="Browndoff, post: 1160157, member: 297831"] At the end of May, a new EU accuracy standard for meters will be applied which will then be +or- 15%. In other words, with the new BETTER accuracy level, you could get a reading of 5 or 7 for an actual BG reading of 6mmol/l! The older meters [which most of us have] would be within their 'rights' to show anything from 4.8 to 7.2 for that true reading of 6mmol/l. That aside, as Bluetit says, any 'strange' reading should be rechecked [poor fingers!]. [/QUOTE]
