[QUOTE="ButtterflyLady, post: 906330, member: 43498"] That sounds like a great kit. Using a pen hurts much less than a lancet, freehand. I question whether he even needs to be doing home BG testing at this stage. I think HbA1c is more important for someone who is in denial about even having diabetes. I don't home test anymore because I don't need to. Maybe he is worrying about a future filled with being pricked all the time. I don't think he needs to, unless he ends up on insulin... which he could at least delay if he started managing his BG, of course. [/QUOTE]
