Hi Folks,

I've been given a test kit (GlucoMen and Accu-Chek)....and they vary a lot....the Accu Check just gave me a reading of 4.9, and the GM 7.2.......

So which one is accurate I wonder !
 
Hi, james. I use the accu-check aviva nano and love it, it does the job n is small n compact, fits into my handbag easy to take with me on the move, you could always pop into a large pharmacy and ask their advice between the 2 meters as they sell different ones and may have an answer for you. Any help? Anna.x :)

Thanks Anna, I guess I'll stick with my nano too....use one meter, it's probably more important that I keep the levels low and I monitor what causes rises....cheers
