[QUOTE="Alison54321, post: 1906847, member: 472744"] Do you use a lancing device? apparently they are supposed to hurt less, but I wouldn't touch them, I just gently push the lancet into the side of my finger, it really doesn't hurt my fingers at all. I prefer having more control. According to this you are not alone in finding your fingers too sensitive, there are a lot of nerve ends in our finger tips, and maybe yours are particularly sensitive, this webpage gives information about alternate site testing. Apparently it's not quite as accurate, but it beats not testing at all. [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/blood-glucose/alternate-site-testing.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
