My readings over the past few days have been lower than usual (Yay!) which got me to wondering whether my meter (Abbott Freestyle Lite) was faulty or the latest tub of strips was duff. Our local Asda pharmacy has a special on the Freestyle Lite at the moment so I popped in this afto and bought one for 4 quid. I've just done a test using both meters and the same drop of blood. The old meter gives me a reading of 5.0 - the new meter 5.5 so it seems that there can be quite a significant difference using identical meters.
I think I'll believe the old meter
