The Experience --
- My fingers are not callous. Lanced the first time at 3.0 = too much blood! But almost painless 👍
- Tested 3 hrs after brunch and it read 144 nyak... Too high!
- I will test next time after 12 hr fast and will lance at a lower depth like 2.0 or 2.5.

Why did I get a glucometer home testing kit?
We have a history of diabetes in the family. Both sides in our case. I am getting older and screening has been advised. Getting tested for Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) outside at a lab during this pandemic is scary, and booking home-service is expensive. This home-testing kit does not assure accuracy but a ballpark figure, at least, gives peace of mind.

Update 11/25/2021:
Result after 12-hour fast is normal at 81 mg/dL. This time at lanced at 2.5 - it was okay with adequate amount of blood extracted hehe. I think I will use this depth for next time too.
