Onetouch Ultra
Question as to Blood Sugar levels?
I had a physical recently and my doctor told me that my blood sugar was 101 so I should keep an eye on it. I’ve been very good about what I eat for 1 month now and yesterday administered my own blood sugar test using the OneTouch Ultra 2 in what would be considered a “Random” testing and received a 92. I thought, “Great, what I’m doing is working.” The problem is that this morning after not eating for about 12 hours I did a “Fasting Blood Glucose” test and the result was 105, a retest showed it at 99. Is there any reason that the fasting test (12 hours no food) would be higher than the random test (4 hours no food)? Does the OneTouch just suck?
Any help would be appreciated.
IF you took the fasting test in the morning, the reason it may have been higher could be from the glucose that your liver is producing and introducing into your blood stream while you sleep.
Your other test could’ve been during the day when you are active, using up the sugar.
HOWEVER…there is a range of the test accuracy (as you saw in your 99 vs. 105 results).
BTW – these are all perfectly normal results. I wonder why your doctor told you to keep an eye on your blood sugars.
