I took my reading last night two hours after dinner and it was 104.
My fasting reading this morning was 206...I knew that wasn't right so I did it 2 more times before giving up. Next readings were 184 and 210. I guess I need to calibrate my meter!

My doc told me that those meters have an accuracy degree of +/- 10 points. Plus your body is constantly changing so you'll always get readings like that. Every time I would take my readings, it always varied like that! I just took an average of 3.

@banana: I took it ten mins later and it was 84!

@autumnlove: Wait. woah! That's way off! Oh...did you wash your hands before and after taking those readings? Whenever I get weird readings, I always scrub my hands with hot soapy water and sometimes I get much lower readings!

@banana: I didn't...weird! I didn't eat anything after my night reading so I knew those high readings were off. Good thing I have cartons of test strips...
