something wrong"was i doing something wrong?"
|

enough blood"like other reviewers when first using the tester we had an occasional 'lo' reading and the strip is wasted but generally i think this is due to just not enough blood in the test strip slot as it only looked half filled or maybe it could be the blood coagulates to quickly and affects the reading"
