Maximum reading on glucose monitor

What does "HIGH" mean on a glucose reading? I was not able to get a reading.

What's not obvious is the make and model of your meter. Your meter may need calibration, is defective, or your levels are beyond the meters maximum limit. I suggest you read the owners manual for an explanation of "HIGH".
