[QUOTE="Fleegle, post: 1715915, member: 402985"] There should not be a 2 difference. I guess what you do not know is which one is most accurate. Both could be 20% out so the actual median of the two could well be in target range. But that said - I wouldn't expect it to be 2 out. As a worse of all options, if it is constantly 2 out - and you think your meter is pretty accurate then just self calibrate. Deduct 2 from the sensor. Not ideal but saves a wasted amount of money. I used the sensors for about 7 months constantly and I would calibrate myself every day a couple of times - usually when the sensor went high on the hope it was lying. Unfortunately it and my meters were all agreeing more or less. Or send it back to Abbott they will probably refund. Ring them - do not remove it until you have made the call. As for the zero carb but still a rise - that can be for many reasons including dawn phenomena though I see your tag says pre-d so I would of thought that unlikely. [/QUOTE]
