Guest guest Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 I have just recently gotten the one Touch also. So much nicer so little blood needs to be drawn. But, had a really, weird thing happen. Was testing my strips for correct testing. Everytime they came out higher than the range that was given on testing strips. After going into the second vile of strips they were only 2 weeks old (and the solution for testing had just been opened)it still tested higher. So took my meter into my diabetic RN. When I got there (it was quite warm outside ) she had me test it and there it registered right in the range it should. I felt like a ding dong. When I came home and told my daughter and husband they just shook their heads. Can the solution being cold cause a improper reading for just testing? I know it sounds like a silly thing to happen. But, sure had me in a bit of a fluff. I really, have learned so much from this list. And yes, sometimes I appreciate recipes. I do have a couple of diabetic cookbooks but, you know its nice to have new things. May you all have a good evening. Ida > I have the One Touch Ultra Smart with it you can in different areas.

Ida Hi Ida, never had that happen, but with my first fast take meters, if the meter was cold it would send me an error message. The new fast take does not. I use about a vial and a half a week, and save some of the little vials. They are great to label and carry in my purse for various meds I need to carry.
