I thought i was getting the hang of this. Well its obvious I was wrong. Or something is.

I took bloods at 8.04 this morning on getting up. 13.2. SHOCK HORROR!!!

Decided to do it again. Different finger different hand new test strip. 8.11am. 9.

How is this possible?
Is it normal?

Im depressed!!!!!
 
It is more likely that the first test was wrong.
You may have had something on your finger or it may have been a dodgy strip (I think the standards allow for 5% of the strips to be dodgy).
You did the right thing by retesting.
