[QUOTE="slaxxfb, post: 1901158, member: 489930"] i didn't know about the precise 15%, my doctor always told me there is going to be a +/- of 20mg/dl (about +/-1.1mmol/L), but if you use 15% it really is gonna be more imprecise the higher your BSL is. (i did not do the math, correct me if i'm wrong lol) when you get an FBS (fasting blood sugar) test from a lab, ask the medtech (?) to apply a drop of that same blood specimen to each of your monitors. record the monitor results and compare them to the one from the lab. i suppose one of em is gonna be more accurate if they change that much, but if both are very near the lab result then i guess it really is the 15% working, and not an error/inaccuracy of the monitor.
