@Muddy CyclistMe to I read all the info on them but far too expensive for me to self fund. I know others say they do not get sore fingers from getting blood to flow but mine constantly hurt even if I use a fresh lance each time, makes my guitar, Mandolin and banjo playing very uncomfortable Still needs must, although just as I think I know how different foods make my BG behave there still seems to be an awful lot of surprises.
All the best for your presentation.
The lancets used to hurt my fingers, and they got sorer and sorer. And I didn’t have any fingers left. Then I had an idea. I was using pure lavender oil on a mosquito bite on my hand and used the finger I prick on to put it down n the bite. And it seemed to ease it.
So then, immediately after a finger prick I put a drop of lavender on it. It stops it hurting and heals it quickly. I have done this for months now, and you can’t tell by looking that I always prick the same two fingers to test.
It’s just what I do...
