"there was time that in just a minute sugar rises and and sometimes went very low."
Are you saying that you test, get one reading then one minute later test again and get another reading?

"or the kit have a problem? "
What is the name and model? Does your "kit" aka glucose meter, require periodic calibration to:
1. Test strips per container batch?
2. With test fluid?
What are the test results numbers?
Your program for testing glucose should be before a meal and then 2-3 hours after a meal. What is it?
