[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2417819, member: 480869"] You’re obviously frustrated right now but take a breath. Why do you expect to see huge differences when you’re eating next to no carbs? The ideal is nice flat line and you look like you’re achieving this with very low carbs. What do you think you should be seeing? They are not perfectly precise. All meters have a margin of error. Both within themselves and each other. People using them to adjust their insulin (which can have life threatening consequences if overdone) manage using these meters. patterns emerge from a lot of testing. Not a day or two and a handful of meals. So far I’d say you’ve found the meals you are eating do not cause high or prolonged spikes. Worthwhile info. Have you used it after a high carb item at all? dawn phenomenon if you have it can take months to go away. Overall levels can take a while too if you’ve been high for sometime. [/QUOTE]
