I am still eagerly awaiting for you to post your results
A comparison between 44 and 61 would be even better I guess

Codefree batch 44

I received an email from Home Health this morning with their preliminary findings on batch 44. I have copied it on the relevant thread

My comparisons between batch 61 and 44 have been interesting. Sometimes there is about a .4mmol/l difference and other times they have read virtually the same. This pot of 44 has been more consistent overall but I've had a run of strips that wouldn't read which makes the damaged in transit solution offered by SD BIosensor seem more plausible.

Hi Cold Ethyl,
I certainly think I had higher readings with batch 44, but some were consistent, and some were not, but once you have some doubt then it can get a little confusing on where your at.

I hope Home Health find the same and they can confirm what we all found on here.

Not sure how many people complained to them?

I started on forxiga back in late June after a week of metformin that I couldn't tolerate, had expected nurse practitioner to swap me to the slow release but he gave me forxiga saying it was new, apart from a mild bout of thrush at the start I got on great with it, combined with strict lchf and exercise I got my hba1c from 61 to 53 in 6 weeks and to 38 in 18 weeks, by the I had lost over 3 stone. My GP advised in December to. Stop taking it in January given I had reduced to non-diabetic level, which I did. Hba1c last week was 39, given I'm meds free now I'm ok with that- total loss now just over 5 stone too.

6.6 it was 7 after one hour.. didn't test again... Don't know why it's so high... had rare beef and homemade coleslaw for supper, with a thin slice of almond cake and a blob of CoYo... I must be breeding something this week I think... Trying not to let it affect me, I know it doesn't help...
