How often should I use a fresh lancet?

Blimey you lot are very good. I change mine every 10. Not every 10 tests, every 10 years. I've got a cupboard full of AccuChek drums. Come to think of it I have a load of bags of regular lancets from previous devices. I went through a phase of sticking the lancet in my finger by hand and when I was doing this I changed for every test. It didn't half hurt though. Used to bleed like I had been jabbed in the nose by Iron Mike Tyson

LOL. Love it.

Thanks for the replies. Most reassuring. :-)

Kind regards,

My doctor told me to avoid stress - so I stopped opening his bills and answering his phone calls.
