Those strips are highly unreliable! There are other signs of ketosis:

smelly breath
smelly urine
hot feeling at night
losing weight and inches

If none of those things apply to you, I would just make sure I was at my carb level for a few days and see what happens.

Hey, don't sweat it, forget those little sticks. They are not worth the hassel or expense.
What Paleonath said is so true, that's al you need to go by.
