Your meter has an allowable error of 5% for 95% of readings. That means that a reading of (eg) anything from 5.7 to 6.3 could be based on an actual BG of 6.0, and there's roughly a 1 in 20 chance that it's a totally rogue reading (but those are usually really abnormally high or low in my experience) .  <a href="https://diatribe.org/42-factors-affect-blood-glucose-surprising-update" target="_blank">https://diatribe.org/42-factors-affect-blood-glucose-surprising-update</a> gives a list of things people have reported as affecting their blood glucose levels.  One of things that affects mine is outside temperature. When it's hot, my BG always goes up.  Why? don't know.</blockquote>
