Disgusty glucose measurement
01/26/2022 1:39 p.m.
Good afternoon: I have done the glucose test three hours after breakfast and it gives me 179 I do not believe it and I repeat it and it gives me 135 I do it again and it gives me 151. Is this possible or fails something?It has happened to someone ... can the glucometer or strips be wrong.ALL THE BEST.

There should not be so much capillary difference, but differences of less than 20% are not so exaggerated.
What glucometer model is it?
En 1922 descubrieron la insulina, en 1930 la insulina lenta. ¿Que c*** han hecho desde entonces?
If you have cold hands, do not massage your fingers ... It can also occur.
It is normal.You have to have active circulation in the fingers and clean so that the test is not contaminated.
The glucometers are not perfect and the strips either, it has a 15-20%toleracy.
Do not worry much, between 150-170 your action guideline is surely the same when correcting values.

I use that same, and those differences do not give them to me, it seems that the glucometer or strips does not go very fine as @ruthbia says
DM3c desde 2018; hb 6 % (feb.. 2022) (tresiba+fiasp+metformina)
I think it could be that I washed my hands with cold water and I did not massage the puncture area ... almost certainly.
