And it's something...Oh this is SO not okay!!!! And it's something that makes me cringe when people say "Oh, diabetes . . . so you just take your insulin and everything is fine, right?". Diabetes is hard enough even with the tools we need, but when our tools aren't giving us data we can trust?

That is disturbing! I don't always trust the PDM meter. We have seen some discrepancies as well. We still have lots of strips from our accu check aviva so we use that at home most of the time, but the pdm meter at school. I do like to compare and like Krissy feel I can trust the accu-check more. But gosh, how scary to see such a big range and then a low that low!!

It's our accu-check aviva and whenever I get wonky results from "pinkie" I check it against the accu-check. This once helped me catch a false high - too bad I'd already dosed for it. Had to wake Ella up and force her to consume a large amount of carbs!

Brutal.<br /><br />I was telling a non- d person about the 20% accuracy thing the other day and they couldn't believe it was an acceptable margin of error.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15030783893373288244noreply@blogger.com
