[QUOTE="Engineer88, post: 385009, member: 70171"] Right I never intended this to turn into a slanging match, but I would like to pick up on a few points you have made. and I am an automotive engineer without question. I have an engineering degree and have engineering awards. Yes I understand not all machines are 100% accurate, however as my blood sugars can swing between 3-20+ in an hour and you, yourself have said you can’t use them above 7, would you say that would be an accurate system for me to use? There are calibration solutions to check the accuracy and if used properly and not contaminated (yes, a possible issue) machines are very accurate. What would I use to put a note out for the milkman? I would go online and alter my order or email him. Probably to his blackberry or Iphone. Are you seriously telling me you eat exactly the same thing day in day out? Because that’s impressive, if you do. However I have done that as a kid and never had any better control from doing so. My diabetes is brittle. It very rarely responds to what I do as it should. Which is why I inquired to the latest technology in the chance it might help me out. That would reduce costs to the NHS, FYI, as I would be self-funding it. [/QUOTE]
