[QUOTE="Alison Campbell, post: 1657621, member: 91555"] There is no such thing as a stupid question, any questions can be helpful to others. The meter kit will come with a few strips and lancets, the meter and a lancing device. Also lots of instructions leaflets. The strips like printer ink cartridges will only work with the meter they are assigned to. I tested a lot to start with until I found a meal plan. I then stopped but restarted again when things started to slide in the wrong direction. It also makes sense to buy the lancets that work with that lancing device. Some don't work so well with other lancing devices. The lancets like strips are single use but some members reuse the same lancet, this is a hot topic discussed every now and then on the forum. This info might be helpful. [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/blood-glucose/blood-glucose-testing-for-type2-diabetes.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
