[Diabetes-Talk] Lancet and Protegy

[Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter]

I will say that in my more than 30 years as a diabetic, my A1-C has always
reflected correctly the appropriate range compared to my meter. So, while
home meters are not as accurate, they are close enough and important to use
daily.

None of these reading are accurate till you have an A1c test done every 3 to
6 months .thatts the most accurate reading of your diabetes management.all
these glucose reading from meters are just ball park estimates and not that
accurate if we are talking about glucose meters from  my point of view on
the  matter.they are just to give you a ball park figure and not an accurate
one.  There is  80 to 90% accuracy of these  meters  and so that  is from my
point of view of using multiple meters in my 14 year experience with glucose
meters and type 2 diabetes.
