Re: New to this
I have only been self testing for about ten days. Got so sick of waiting for my GP Practice to get their **** into gear. I did not think it acceptable for me to wait till the 24th September when I was only diagnosed on the 3rd August.
I decided to take the bull by the horns and purchase my own one saturday morning whilst out with hubby. I decided upon the Aviva Nano after reading a few favourable comments, and as one who likes the path of least resistance, and as little pain as possible. I thought i would try it.
There were a few teething problems I managed to waste one drum of lancet I have managed pretty well. I only doing it on 1 at the moment due to being such a woss, and have got it down to only a couple of minutes. One of my colleagues even asked me to test them, which i declined for health reasons.
Overall i am pleased with it but is it really possible to find a virtually painless blood glucose testing kit. Sometimes it hurts sometimes it does not.
I am very pleased with my choice.
