    Type 2 How often should you change your lancet

    That seems to be ok rachox. But I work on a construction site and it’s a bit mingin . I get my lancets-on prescription so think I’ll keep it at each test . Then at the weekend do 1 a day . Don’t think id be happy leavin it for longer as I’ve heard it can give ya strange readings
