Suckered again by Accu-Chek

Tested as usual, just before making Coffee......5,7

Thought process: That's unusually high, but never mind, I'm still breathing.

Make Double Espresso and half fill Mug

Voice in head: That was a strange reading, nearly 1 mmol/l higher than normal.............................what if ???

Main Brain says: OK, if you must I'll do another.

Test again.....4.8

Make second Double Espresso and fill rest of Mug and put in teaspoon of cream.

Voice in head: What if the first one was right and the second was wrong ? ..............................................what if ?

Main Brain: Oh shut-up you fusspot !!!!

Voice: What if ???

Main Brain: Oh OK then, just to shut you up !!!!

Test again, left hand this time and ...............4.8 again

So thank you Accu-Chek, you win again..............3 tests done to tell me what I already knew before I started

Morning all,
Hmm. 6.4 before bed last night. 8.4 this morning. Determined not to start any meds for as long as possible.
Going to have a doubly creamy coffee with cinnamon. Lovely!

Avoid the meds if you can. I came off after 4 months on them due to exercise LCHF combo brining my FBG consistently down to the 5s. Good luck
