[QUOTE="juliekem, post: 884650, member: 47477"] Well I am horrified. How on earth do I know what is happening if the test meters are so inaccurate? 8.9 is bad news but 7.8 is good news for me. The other fact is that the Code Free meter was within 0.1 of a test done at my local pharmacy although I agree that there are online articles that support the Aviva. I have sent off for Aviva test substance to check that meter and e-mailed the Code Free people so I can find out how to check that one. I really need to know what my bg is doing otherwise there is no real point in checking. Sticking to one meter will mean that I can do comparisons easily but if it isn't very accurate it is not much use. Could this be why GPs suggest not testing very often for us type 2s?? [/QUOTE]
