[QUOTE="dipsydo, post: 1664021, member: 371312"] I did have some trouble with strips when those is in a open tub got more inaccurate the longer the tub had been open ( this occurred with two tubs of same Batch and not others ) I complained to Roche and got a similar reaction to you that I was my fault and the way I was testing . I was not impressed and got a Tee2 as an alternative because if going to be inaccurate might as well pay less for the strips nevertheless I do think a meter is useful if one accepts that it is not totally accurate . I therefore use the meter as a guide and if I keeping reasonably steady at acceptable BS 5's with the odd 6 or 4 and if I spike with a new food ( I will test on another day with same food if I think I would not expect a spike). Obviously my take on meter accuracy not a view which a person who takes insulin may take. [/QUOTE]
