Unusual Test Results
If your test result does not match the way you feel, please follow these steps:
1. Run a control test, Chapter 2, "Control Solution Testing."
2. Repeat a blood glucose test, Chapter 3, "Testing Your Blood glucose."
3. If your test results still do not reflect the way you feel, call your doctor immediately.
Note:
1. Extremely high humidity may affect the test results. A relative humidity greater than 90% may
cause inaccurate results.
Operate your system between 30%-90% RH.
2. Hematocrit below 20% may cause higher results. Hematocrit above 60% may cause lower
results.
