[QUOTE="NaziaB, post: 1437304, member: 392919"] Hi guys, Nazia here! I was just wondering, how do blind people check their glucose levels. According to research, there are talking glucose meters so does that mean the whole pricking the finger with a needle process is the same for blind people as well? Do they do this themselves? Does someone do it for them? How is independence achieved when you are blind and diabetic? In terms of my wristband (see [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/blog/naziab.392919/[/URL]), how can it make a diabetic person's life easier? The only thing I can think of is the "talkback" feature. Thanks in advance for your responses. :) [/QUOTE]
