Your blood glucose may be extremely high or a meter or a test
strip error has occurred. If this con
fi
rms how you feel, contact your
healthcare professional immediately. If it does not con
fi
rm how you
feel, repeat the test and refer to Chapter 2 “Unusual Test Results.”
If this does not con
fi
rm the way you feel, run a control test with your
control solution and a new test strip. If the control result is within the
acceptable range, review the proper testing procedure and repeat
your blood glucose test with a new test strip. If the E-3 code still
appears for your blood glucose test, your blood glucose result may
be extremely high and above the system’s reading range.
Contact
your healthcare professional immediately.
If the control result is
not within the acceptable range, see Chapter 4 “Understanding
Out-of-Range Control Test Results.”
