Understanding Your Test Results
If your blood glucose result seems unusually high, low,
or inconsistent with your previous results or glucose
trends and does not reflect the way you feel, check the
following:
• Does the test strip number on the container match the
code number on the meter?
• Was the blood sample applied to the test strip within
three minutes of removing it from the container?
• Was the size of the blood sample sufficient?
• Was the test strip container cap tightly sealed?
• Was the test strip used before the expiration date?
• Were the test strips stored at extreme temperatures
such as in the car during very cold or hot weather?
• Were the test strips stored in areas of high humidity
such as the kitchen or the bathroom?
