    New Flash Glucose Monitoring from Abbott - Bloodless Testing

    After reading that hale, I can't wait for next week. Also on a personal note it will allow me to let my kids get involved with testing. As my 9 year old is always on at me, because she wants to help with testing. I also like the idea of the blood ketone, my only thing is that the InsuLinx lite...

    IHs, they quoted €59.90 for the receiver and the same price for the sensors. But I think I'll be having a very long and in depth chat, with rep, when I see them next week. Thank god, my parents are picking my kids up on that day.

    New Flash Glucose Monitoring from Abbott - Bloodless Testing

    I have to agree hale70, I would be of the same opinion. I think Abbott have found a slot in the market. Esp for someone like me, that runs out of places to test from, but can't fork out, the amount needed for cgm. This fits a gap. A step up from finger/ arm testing, but more affordable for some...

    New Flash Glucose Monitoring from Abbott - Bloodless Testing

    Start up price is £138 for 2 sensors and the monitor, then £40 each sensor, this price was given to my DSN today at Kings from the Abbott rep, that gave a presentation. And it can be used for bolsus and corrections for pump use, if you are under Kings, the team is happy with this. But for hypo's...

    PaulinaB, you need to ask your local hospital Dr or Gp, for a referral to Kings College.

    New Flash Glucose Monitoring from Abbott - Bloodless Testing

    @Hooked , hopefully in a little bit of time, they will bring the price of the sensors down. I am looking forward to trying this, as for me bg testing is hard at points, thats why I wanted to know if Kings would accept the readings for pump use. But by the time I take it back, it should be out to...
