[QUOTE="Nellie, post: 18991, member: 7196"] s****! How do I explain over the internet? The ketone strips I have, have 2 patches one measures glucose in the urine (its shades of yellow/green on my strips) . This is a far less reliable test than the one you use on a meter since it reflects your glucose level when the urine was made not at this minute. The figures that you gave are high, just as the meter readings were that you mentioned before. The other measures ketones, it is purple if positive, the darker the purple the higher the ketone level. As your'e now being monitored by the clinic I would be far less worried as they seem to be testing for everything (unlike your original doctor) and you will see them tomorrow. Try to get a good nights sleep. Its half ten here so definitely time for me! (and don't move to rural france if you want internet access at night this is the second atempt!) Third attempt, luckily I copied my post before sending [/QUOTE]
