Painful finger-pricks

[nannoo_bird]

Hi guys. I am developing a problem. Because of neuropathy, I am finding the finger-pricks really painful, and am putting off taking my BS levels. I have tried other testing sites, but find those just as painful. Has anyone else suffered the same?

What other sites have you tried?

My Glucomen finger pricker came with an attachment to test BG from forearms. It worked pretty well although I never bothered with it because I got on okay with the fingertips.

Are you testing down the sides of your finger tips and avoiding the very top?
