[QUOTE="Deediabetic, post: 2464292, member: 547295"] I don't know if this is true but my diabetic nurse told me that pushing your fingers too close to where you've pricked yourself to get enough blood to put on your test strips can cause a higher and inaccurate reading. She said to use gravity and apply pressure further below on your fingers and hands to get enough blood to test. Are you by any chance applying pressure too high up your finger to get enough blood to test? [/QUOTE]
