IMPORTANT: When proper procedures are followed, the meter will display
"
" when your result is above 500 mg/dL (27.8 mmol/L). This indicates very
high blood glucose (severe hyperglycemia).
Low and High Blood Glucose: Test results below 60 mg/dL
mean low blood glucose (hypoglycemia). Test results greater than 240 mg/dL
(13.3 mmol/L) mean high blood glucose (hyperglycemia). If you get results
below 60 mg/dL or above 240 mg/dL and you do not have symptoms that
match your results, repeat the test following the guidelines on pages 38–39 to
ensure testing accuracy. You may also use the Color Chart (see pages 32–33).
If you have symptoms that match your results or if you continue to get results
that fall below 60 mg/dL or above 240 mg/dL, follow the treatment advice of
your healthcare professional.
Record your test result in your
LifeScan logbook. The logbook
allows you to keep a record of your
test results, along with information
on your meals and medication.
