I wouldn't use test strips, because it would confuse your meter, but their urine sticks test diet vs regular coke perfectly.

Not a problem.

Tried it

I did try this and Diet lemonade (so I presume diet coke will be the same) gives Low Sugar (<.3, your dead) and 'Fat' coke gives High sugar (>33, your dead). Just eaten and a Frankie and Bennies and they bend the straw to indicate diet coke, so top marks to them.

your dead?

 

[Vicsetter]

your dead

Sorry, my sense of humor. I've not heard of anyone getting a "Lo" or a "high" reading from their meter they are usually unconscious at least by then.

I did once and got a Lo reading and realised my finger was damp after washing it. Dried finger properly and reading OK.

Try doing this with an ordinary practice nurse when she is doing a clinic. I think she nearly had heart failiure when I did it and had to call in two of the three receptionists, the other nurse and both the doctors when I didn't dry my hands properly!
