    Ordered my meter should arrive in the next few days. This seems quite trivial but can I still drink and what. Cutting down food would like a drink just to stay normal if that makes sense..

    Just visited my nurse and she says you don't need to monitor blood regularly but I think it would help me. So can people recommend the best machine to buy and where from.
