How accurate is FreeStyle Flash?

Hi,

I'm a newly diagnosed Type 2 PRE-diabetic. Because my BG values on blood tests at physicals was usually normal, I started doing my own tests to try to figure out why I was exhibiting classic symptoms (excessive thirst, urination, fatigue, and so on).

I had a TrueTrack meter and it tested similar to what the office test were.

I just bought a FreeStyle Flash because it offered more alternate sites and needed a smaller sample, but it's consistently testing 10-13 points below the TrueTrack. I don't know which one to believe.

Does anyone know where I can find out info on accuracy?

Thanks!

I don't have any personal experience with them, but here is an article that gives a comparison. http://ajhp.org/cgi/content/abstract/63/15/1411
