Is pricking your finger sore?

I decided to check the PELIKAN SUN website today, only to find that the product has been DISCONTINUED. I expect it was just too expensive to produce & sell in the current depressed market. :roll:
 
Best way to get blood from tour finger is to use a standard syringe and prick the top of your finger just on the flesh past your nail. I was shown this trick by a consultant 37 years ago, he was also a type 1. I have been extracting blood this way on average 8 times a day for all those years. My fingers look fine, I don't bother washing them and use the syringe until its blunt. I will post a vid on youtube showing how easy this method is.
