Readings

Phil66 said:

Hello,
I haven't been diagnosed but decided to get a monitor to check, I got an Accucheck Instant.
On a morning it is 6.2 and an hour or so after my evening meal it's around 4. I read somewhere that it should be at its lowest in the morning.
What are your thoughts please?
Thanks
Phil

Those look OK to me. Morning readings are often the highest of the day, in many people's experience.

Answer depends why you're testing, really, and it's a bit like checking how much electricity your house is using. It will vary, and unless you cross-reference it with other factors (eg) with what you're eating, what exercise you do, whether you're ill or not etc, individual readings probably won't tell you much.
