My husband was recently diagnosed with type 2, insulin dependent, he has multiple other medical problems and we are both coping well. The DN are a great support and readings are quite stable however he does need to eat every couple of hours during the day or will have a hypo. He also got a hypo the first time he went out for a walk, the DN suggested I carry his meter in the car. The hospital supplied an Accu check Aviva and this website supplied me with a free One Touch Verio I thought I would keep the One Touch in the car and decided to check and do each test on both meters. I was very surprised to discover the reading each time were quite different on each meter. Accu Check maybe 4.6 and One Touch 5.8. This scared me as the first time I tried both the Accu Check said he was having a hypo and the One Touch indicated he wasn't. He often can't tell a hypo because of his other medical problems. Has anyone else come across this problem as I would really like to be able to use both?
