[QUOTE="Crocodile, post: 2348270, member: 468583"] 5.2 to 6.2 is about as accurate as most of these on the spot strip testers are. So if yo were 5.7, then those readings are less than 10% error. T2s here in Australia are not recommended for testing every meal or day either but your GP can override this if he thinks there's a benefit. Mine is happy to do this for me since I've explained the low carb approach to him. He's quite supportive of the low carb diet but freely admits that many T2s won't stick to it or find it too onerous on their lifestyles. [/QUOTE]
