Obviously as a Type 1 I test my BG quite a lot.
I always knew to not use my pinky or thumb for blood testing, however I read today that it should be the 2nd and 3rd fingers that are used and not the index finger.
Is there a reason for this?
I also seem to struggle with one side of each finger to get any blood out, seems to be an ongoing issue for me.
