May not have access to the actual blood sugar at the time of the draw, but I do have the next best thing: confirmation that I had a bad vial of OneTouch test strips. The meter continued to read much higher than my actual numbers, so I tested out the test of the vial. My meter was fine; my test strips were not. I’m glad I asked here before dropping the meter in the trash.

Anyway, _OneTouch: still not my favorite, but not as bad as it looked._
