[QUOTE="iHs, post: 253589, member: 8799"] Yes, postive. I bought one of the first Freestyle meters when they were first advertised in Balance under name of Therasense in 2001. Abbot bought out the company a few years later. I remember phoning Therasense to ask why it took longer to calculate my bg levels than my other meter and that's when the technology that the company used was explained to me. Over the years many bg meters have come on the market but they all just calculate an average based on seconds except the Freestyle Mini meters. My friend's bg level which was fairly high always took longer to calculate on the Freestyle (weight of glucose in blood) than mine did. I have found over the years of using meters that none of them will ever calculate the same so this is why its best not to compare all the time. [/QUOTE]
