What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

Really do not know where I truly am with it all

 

That's why I took two readings from the same drop of blood ... if only I could remember which meter gave which reading I'd be golden ...

 

Hello @Lainie71 Silly questions, apologies, but are both meters showing the same units, such as mmo/lt? Does either meter have a special test strip for checking the meter's calibration? Have you tried either as a simultaneous comparison with your health centre's professional meter? (Yes I know it's a pain to get an appt.)

 

5.8 for me.

 

Good morning
Phone Larry 7.3
Contour 6.4
Todays theory more protein(1g for every llb of body weight)=more sleep & lower FBG
Theory may change tomorrow
@ianpspurs still not back at gym, keep doing my share please
Have a good day everyone

 

6.7 today

 

4.7 today. Have a good day everyone

 

5.1 for me

 

5.6 this morning.

 

7.7 - Backwards and forwards…..

 

5.5? No Swipey just now (in the post/with Sue Gray) so go with average. @Pipp yay for the 5 yesterday. @DEBBIESCOTT don't rely on a spavined 66.5 yo with a shonky spine for help but gym Mon, Weds and Fri - following a referral programme for now (being me I add some weight and other exercises just to help you out.) Big Picture vs Ego - the Glory Days ain't coming back. Go Team D

 

I’ve got a sinocare safe aq, don’t use it but just done a little experiment after exercise
Safe aq 9.5, libre 9.3 & contour 8.8
Contour usually reads higher than my Finetest lite which the hospital checked last year & said was accurate, with the 15% either way they could in theory be 30% difference, sorry, not very helpful

 

Morning All. 6.8 for me today. Could be better and has been worse! Have a good Wednesday everyone. Wrap up warm.

 

5.4 at 6AM

 

@Ryhia

Edited to add: Just out of interest which was the lower number? Safe AQ or your other meter?

I wish I could remember ... I'll do another side by side comparison at some point. But both of them are Sinocare so I would expect to see random variation.

This morning I got a 4.8, which is fine with me

 

The readings should be held in the meters memory and can be recalled.

 

Which would be easier to work out if I'd set the time/date on either of them ...

I tend to use the finger prick readings as a guide rather than gospel. Given my (lack of) diagnosis I don't need an absolutely accurate number.

 

The 5 didn’t linger.
6.3 today.

 

Thanks for responding. And snap - my reading 4.8 this morning using the Sinocare AQ.
