I have identical meters - a purse meter and a home meter. My home meter is older and also gets a lot more use. (Apparently I don’t get out much.) Lately I’ve been nervous that it might be time to replace it. So I decided to do a side-by-side test with both meters. I used the same drop of blood and strips from the same vial. And I held me breath to see how closely the two tests would line up.
Yeah baby!!! This really put my mind at ease. And it was a perfect slice of diabetes life for me to share as part of the Walk With D campaign. Have you shared some moments of your #WalkWithD yet?

Those meters really are awesome. But here's a question for you-- particularly regarding your older one. Do you find you need to really push the strip in to get it to turn on? Sometimes, I put the strip in to the point where I think it should go on, but it turns out I just didn't push it hard or far enough....
ReplyDeleteYes Scott, I totally do!! It's the main reason I was afraid it wasn't working correctly anymore. Also it seems to be losing its charge quicker.
