Hello, I have read that when measuring your glucose, if you press your finger after the prick, it can give an erroneous result due to the mixture of blood with another substance.But if I don't press it, the drop is not big enough.Thank you

Wow, another thing I didn't know but the AI ​​says yes, you don't have to press too hard because it mixes with the interstitial fluid.

Better to prick on the sides where more blood comes out or warm your hands with hot water or rub them first.

En 1922 descubrieron la insulina, en 1930 la insulina lenta. ¿Que c*** han hecho desde entonces?
