So, which do you go with when you get two different blood glucose readings when you get wo different readings depending on which finger you test? This is such a frustrating thing. Especially when it's hypo range.
For example, right now I just measured the ring and index fingers on my right hand. Ring finger gave me 3.6, index gave me 4.4. I then went and washed my hands, came back and measured the two fingers again. This time the ring finger gives me 4.1 and the index gives me a bloody 3.5 ugh
So frustrating because the difference between these numbers is important. If I am 4.4 I am fine but if I am 3.5 then I need to take action. Annoying this is I feel fine because I have less hypo awareness these days.
Which to trust. I'm just going to have a snack (10g carbs) and be on the safe side.
