[QUOTE="cugila, post: 164411, member: 15325"] Ah ........the good old 'hypothenar eminence'......... :wink: We had another member a while ago who also used the same area and he too was getting some odd readings. He simply started using the sides of the fingers again, which is where it is recommended and found that the readings were much more reliable. If your meter checks out with the control solution and the strips are viable (in date) then try the normal site testing as AST (Alternative Site Testing) can give different numbers. Failing that a phone call to the manufacturers might help....... :) [/QUOTE]
