Hi Larry, I have only had one false reading. I believe I may have messed up the test myself by letting blood flow in both sides of the test strip.
I have been taking several measurement a day to get a feel for where my numbers run. Mornings at wake, 1 hour 2 hours no breakfast, 2 hours after breakfast. Before and after my workouts. Pre and post 20 mile bike rides, Bedtime, before and after sex.
I am a bit worried since I've donated a lot of blood I can't trust my A1C.
BG is always over 100. I also have the dawn phenomenon.
130 consistently when I first wake. 2 hours later with no breakfast 100.
My next test for Monday is go to the gym hungry (no extra carbs for long term energy) and test after I get dizzy from what I think is sugar depletion hypoglycemic. I want to know what my BG is when I get that weak shaky dizzy feeling.
So that is where I stand. I have droped my T dose and do not plan on donating blood for 6 months so I can get a real A1C number.
I will also draw fasted blood at 12 noon not 7-8am since I know my BG is high then.
Any suggestions or thoughts?
