[QUOTE="Sydneyhorn, post: 2411185, member: 543834"] Yes, I had this trouble with my TEE2 to start with. I once used 5 strips before I got it right! Now I'm a veteran of 2 weeks it's become easier. The key is to get a good bubble of blood. It doesn't seem to work if the blood flow is too weak or too strong, causing the blood to smear. Now I'm confident that I've got the "right type" of bubble before it goes anywhere near the strip. And yes, getting the edge of the strip in contact with the blood so it sucks it up is crucial!
