IMPORTANT INFORMATION (continued):
If you have symptoms of low or high blood glucose, check your blood glucose immediately. If your result
does not match how you feel, repeat the test. If your results still do not match the way you feel, call your
doctor or healthcare professional immediately.
To help prevent false high results, wash hands before using the blood glucose monitoring system to test
blood, especially after fruit has been handled.
Since any meter may fail, break or be misplaced, you should always have a backup meter.

true physiological state. Reduced peripheral blood flow may result from the following conditions:4
