Hello all,
This is my first post but a serious one. I need help!!! I have been asked to test my BG, 6 times a day (I know its not a lot) the biggest problem is that I suffer from hyper sensitivity and even with a 33gauge one touch delica, im in pain, while testing and after testing.
So far I have brought Emla and orajel to numb my fingers (no luck) I have iced, used cold water and warm water but its still painful. My lancing machine is on number one. After spending the weekend going through threads, I have found no answer.
I don't want a reply that it doesn't hurt after 16 year or that I don't feel it anymore (Love you guys but this is different). I would like some help and advice from people on how to copy. I've tried breathing, fingers on the side of the table, doing it on my palm ( got told off about this), Lidocaine, benzocaine, freeze spray, the pain is still there and also afterwards.
Please if your Hypersensitive and have found a way to test, then help me. I'm at the point that Im sick of crying and can not yet afford the Libre.
Please help.
