Low blood glucose (hypoglycemia): sweating, trembling, blurred
vision, rapid heartbeat, tingling, or numbness around mouth or
fingertips.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, test your blood
glucose. If your blood glucose result is displayed greater than
240 mg/dL (13.33 mmol/L) or below 60 mg/dL (3.33 mmol/L)
and you have symptoms of low or high blood glucose, contact
your doctor immediately. If your blood glucose result does not
match how you feel, follow the steps under „Unusual Test Re-
sults."
Comparing your meter's result to a lab result:
A common question is how the blood glucose results on your
meter compare to the lab results. Your blood glucose can change
quickly, especially after eating, taking medication, or exercising.
If you test yourself in the morning, then go to the doctor's of-
ficeforabloodglucosetest.Theresultswillprobablynotmatch,
even if you are fasting. This is typically not a problem with your
meter, it just means that time has elapsed and your blood glu-
cose has changed.

from your arm by a healthcare professional. Keep in mind that
the lab could use different technology than smartLAB®sprint nG
blood glucose meter, and that blood glucose meters for self test-
ing generally read somewhat lower or higher than the lab result.
For accuracy and precision data and for important information on
limitations, see the instructions that come with your test strips.
