It can be a bit complicated to understand the results at first but as you use it more it gets easier. You can then print off the results and take them to your GP or hospital visits, although the hospital will probably have there own smartpix, at least ours does.With the meter you input the information directly. You can set up 4 timescales with different Insulin to Carb ratios and the meter will use these to advise a bolus for thet time (obviously the time needs to be set correctly on the meter first <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> ) We use a different ratio for breakfast dinner and tea and this suits us very well. They took it off us when we went onto the pump but the combo meter is even better so not complaining.Let us know how you get on with it, I'm sure you will like it.Harry</blockquote>
