hello
This is my first question so please be gentle with me!
I have used the one touch ultra meter for a long time, maybe ten years. I'm very happy with it. However, I've been told that this meter is no longer compliant with testing requirements and that I need to get a new meter. My gps gave me a new meter, agamatrix jazz, which I tried out over new year. However I do a lot of walking and climbing, and found that the agamatrix Jazz didn't work when it was cold, which was not very convenient when I was up the side of a mountain in freezing conditions and could not test my blood sugar.I only had this problem once with the one touch ultra meter, but that was when it was about -5, and was otherwise fine in the cold.
Are there any recommendations for meters which work well in the cold please?
Also ideally a meter that has a big version (for at home) and a small version (for handbag).
Thanks.
Rachel
