Has anyone been given the arm band that reads your blood sugar levels and saves you from prick your fingers all the time, am asking to see if they give accurate readings as may be getting one!

I don't think there are any arm bands reliably measuring BG at the moment.
Is this something you're going to buy or have you been offered this arm band by your diabetes nurse?

Or are you maybe talking about getting a Libre sensor?
That's the one that looks like a button and goes on the back of your arm?
