When you do the bg tests, do you use the numbers that the meter gives you or do you adjust the numbers somehow to make allowance for the human meter being used?
I am getting good numbers with my meter at home - all my numbers for the past few days have been really good: 10/18 - 98, 10/19 - 87, 10/20 - 77, 10/21 - 67 and today's numbers of 89, 60, and 80. Yesterday when I took Bo to the vet to get a curve, the vet used my meter one time to compare to his reading. His was 226 and mine at the same time was 139. Bo was obviously in a stress mode for it to be 139 on my meter.
So anyway, I was wondering if you use the numbers exactly as they are on your meters when you make decisions to shoot or not OR was there some adjustment in the numbers since it is a human meter. Thanks!
