New to this. Using my Dad's glucose monitor (he passed away in 2009 at age 95).
My fasting BS @ 10 was 98. One hour later, after a breakfast that consisted of: 1 slice toasted whole wheat bread 1 scrambled egg w/cheese added 1 cup 2% milk 4 fresh strawberries (no added sugar) my BS was 29. Whuh? Is that possible? I didn't have any OJ in the fridge, so ate a tsp. of raspberry jam. Tested again 5 min. later and got a BS readout of 119. This makes NO sense whatsoever to me!!! The FreeStyle monitor does a little self-test before you can submit the blood sample. I don't poke my finger -- just stab my forearm to get a dot of blood. Input please! (BTW, I will be leaving soon -- will check back this afternoon.)
