To get a better blood flow for testing .. Make sure your hands / fingers are warm ... Leave your hand down by your side and wiggle your fingers for a few mins before lancing also you can rub Gentley the area your going to use for the test just before you lance. Have you got the lance set right the higher the number the deeper the lance goes into your finger ... It's gets easer ...honestYes, on reflection I can't see myself doing multiple readings every day - the lancing business is going to see to that; not just the discomfort but my continued difficulty in getting decent sized blood droplets!
Some time the old fashioned paper and pencil are good .. The wife loves drawing charts from my numbers .. Tried to show one to the DBN .. But she just dropped it in the bin ... Never even asked if I wanted it back !Hi Guys,
Sorry, late to the party (again).
I didn't actually ever send off for the SD Codefree cable thingy.
It didnt seem worth it, in the end, because I no longer test with the same, er... fervour... that I was during the spring and summer. I ran out of new foods to test, really, and there's only so many times you need to test bacon and egg.
But I'm interested in finding out how anyyone is doing with theirs... Is it good?
I can feel that new toy gadget fever simmering in the background.

I try to avoide .. But they are all cut from the same cloth in my medical practiceI would hold that grudge a looooong time!
And avoid her forevermore...

The wife will do it for fun ! She is an artist .. Horticultralist and garden designer .. As she started before the computer designs started she can do both, but the hand drawn are more for fun now including my graphs.What a miserable cow!I hope it hasn't put your wife off her charting.
I tend to keep a backup log in a notebook (or occasionally on scraps of paper) mainly because I couldn't ever get my first contour meter to upload its data) but I can now upload with my current one, and the Bayer software will draw graphs for me. My diabetics doctor did actually look at my printouts, comment on, and file them. it's about the only nice thing I can say about him though...
