Accurate Blood Glucose Meter

[KX4SAM]

Looking for advice on a personal glucose meter. A1C was fine according to my personal doctor, but fasting glucose was 114 just before my operation.

Time to get a meter and see what is really going on.

Looking for advice on a known accurate meter.

Thanks
Sam

Coop, I couldn't find the meter comparison chart. That link brings me to a urine strip chart.

I don't know why I'm looking anyway, I have to use the Precision Xtra, that's what the AF will prescribe strips for.

Cheryl,

I just edited my post, above. After looking at what I already posted, I noticed the same thing that you did!!

So sorry about that!!

Hello Sam
I just wanted to welcome you to our ADBB family

I dont have any firsthand experience of diabetes, but since my husband (who is also called Sam) has been Atkineering with me he has found that his type 2 diabetes seems to have improved to the stage that he no longer needs to take special medication!!

I wish you well in your journey towards better health with the Atkins Way of Eating.
