I am a diabetic. I have not yet bought a blood glucose meter. I have heard that it gives some difference in the readings. So if I buy one then I would like to do the following test in order to assess how different the reading of the blood glucose meter is from the one of the testing laboratory.
I will have my last meal before 9pm in the night and will not take anything after this. Early morning I will just have a glass of water and take the reading with the accucheck meter at 7am. After half an hour I will go to the medical laboratory near my home and take the test there. Compare both the results. For sure I believe the results should be the same with only half an hour gap between them.
Am I correct in my thoughts about the above?? Please advise.
