Glucose Monitoring

Hi All - I am after some help 🙏🏻. I have just been diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes. I’ve been given my testing kit but I keeping get Err2, Err 1 & Err 4 messages. I can’t actually get a reading despite doing it multiple times. Using an Agamatrix Monitor. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Hi there, have you given it a clean? With the solution? If so and it’s still not working I’d ask to get a new one as this one doesn’t seem to work. Mine just worked straight away.

I’ve had the odd error message when there wasn’t enough blood on the strip but just found that list online - for the Agamatrix one

@Kathryn thanks so much for your reply. There is a solution in bag but no instructions as to what to do with it? It’s called a control solution? Is that what you are referring to? And if so, what should I do with it exactly? Thanks

@Kate what a nightmare, did you not get a box with the instructions? When I pop upstairs I’ll find it and take a photo for you as I can’t remember but I know it’s in my box 😂😂

@Kathryn I do have the box etc., I just googled it as couldn’t be arsed to walk upstairs and have a look 😂

Hospital told me agamatrix was really bad for not working x

@Kate 😂😂😂 just saw this after I put the photos on! 😂😂😂 if it doesn’t work give them a call and try and get another one xx

I have the agamatrix one and this happens a lot. It’s super frustrating. I think it’s because you’re not getting enough blood. Or your hands were still wet/sweaty so it gets watered down. Make sure your hands are really warm and dry before pricking and then when you squeeze you should get a big drop come quickly.
