Is it as accurate (or at least accurate enough) to test blood from other areas of the body? The blood test meter I got says you can and has a diagram to say what areas you can use, but it says if you are testing for low blood sugar you should use the fingertips, is this because it's less accurate in other areas?
It's just I've only used the meter three times, and I've already managed to scratch one of my fingers with the lancet, and I can still see the mark from one of the other two times, I don't want to be damaging my fingers at all.
