It's always worth thinking about what could have caused such a jump, and washing hands and re-testing to check.If you're getting sore fingers, you should be able to change the depth settings on your lancing device - there should be an optimal level where you get a decent drop of blood without it hurting (too much). Try lower settings and work your way up.Robbity</blockquote>
