I would like to know how accurate blood glucose meters are? I have low blood sugar and often get readings in the 50′s and it scares me to death and gives me terrible anxiety. My family says i shouldn’t believe everything my meter reads because they don’t give 100% accurate readings and i know they are not 100% but i would feel better if i knew how inaccurate or off they normally can be. I use a one touch ultra meter.
I made a studyguide, but I don’t know some of the answers? Most of it is just definitions…Here’s a Copy of it:

For the past year my energy levels have been low and many hours throughout the day my visual focus is very low and i struggle to concentrate or read simple things. I have found that upon eating alot I go back to my normal self for a good few hours. I went to the opticians to complain about this and they said there is nothing wrong with my eye sight.
I have also been drinking stupid amounts of water . And by this I mean I can be going to the toilet every 25 minutes and drinking a pint afterwards as I can’t get rid of the firsty feeling. One night I had to have around 8 pints of water. I also have atleast a pint of water throught the night as I wake up really dehydrated as thought i’m poorly.
