[QUOTE="Kristin251, post: 1528857, member: 240838"] Lmao!!! Why would something so nice be here??? Of course not. Though I did look it up and it gave US and U.K. Prices. $75 here. Not sure if that's for both the sensor and scanner or just the sensor. It was just a quick Google. Thanks for the explanation. I'll look deeper. After thinking about my A1C and reading all of you lovely peoples replies I decided I'm definatley using my strip. Is there any accurate meter? The big thing is ....during the day and through the night I'm generally in the 80's. A few 90 and a few 70. However, I didn't take into account DP. Mine starts around 6 am and I'm usually still in the 80's-90's and then I wake up around 7:30-8 and I'm over 100, more so in the teens. It takes my bf shot and a shot an hour later to stop any further rise and bring it back down. So that could be 4 hours over 100. Doc says my meter is inaccurate butwhen I think about it my body says it's not. When I go below 72 I feel low. And I am!! His meter said 107 and 99. Mine said 83 both times. So who's is inaccurate? Even if mine is it's consistently inaccurate lol. As for DP my husband leaves for work at 6. He's been giving me a 1/2 unit and it's knocking it in its track. Today woke up at 75. Not 115. I'll see how this goes. I might just prefer to be a tad higher and not a voodoo doll. Thanks for all your help [USER=44622]@Squire Fulwood[/USER] :) [/QUOTE]
