[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2295046, member: 451727"] Hi Jim, I think it's all about the so called averages. My average number is precisely 5.7 and yet I don't think I have ever seen an actual reading of that number, it's normally in the 4s or 6s or higher. I don't know whether you have something else going on but you would have to do a test at least once a minute 24/7 to get any idea of what your levels are like in between testing. I have a Libre now and although it's not 100% accurate, at the start I would be checking my levels every 10 minutes and every ten minutes they were different. My first hb1ac after starting the libre was spot on with the Libre's estimate actually but I think others have different experiences. x [/QUOTE]
