[QUOTE="barrym, post: 2665272, member: 70535"] In my experience I don't think it as clean cut as one lag time. To me I see variations anywhere from < 2mins or virtually in step, to 20 mins as you say. Depends on many things, food type, body temp, air temp, current mental state, excercise at the time or previous....... If you want to do BG level drop over a fixed period, and be accurate (as poss.) finder prick is essential. Interstitial fluid will always be trend based. Learn to interpret it for your individual situation, and always wait a while if you are in doubt of what you are shown. Apologies re 'sucking eggs', but someone may find my ramblings useful. Unlikely, but it took a while to type;). [/QUOTE]
