Don't think I did but anything is possible - anyway, I have a spare one now. I think I'll use all my test strips before I start on the new one! Thank you for your comments xVery well done! Keep up the good work!
DCUK sometimes post a free draw for the monitor on Facebook, maybe you clicked on one of those?
I'm happy with the meter I have and the cost of strips is not prohibitive, even for an OAP like me! It's a mystery as to where it came from....wait till you try to get strips for the next meter; double the price of other meters! Hence the "free" competition they ran.....
Thank you kindly xxResult! Fabulous work there, very well done.
It's a good feeling and such a relief! Thank you xxCongrats, @LindsayJane. Really, really wonderful results. A job well done. I'm very, very happy for you.
I've just looked at the price on line - blood pressure back up!!! I think I'll stick with the one I have (half the price!).wait till you try to get strips for the next meter; double the price of other meters! Hence the "free" competition they ran.....
Thank you! It's such a relief!Incredible results - well done you!
Fantastic results! Well done you!Apparently, my blood/urine results from last week are available on line....
HbA1c down from 95 to 43!
Blood pressure also down from 150/60 (high) to 135/70 (pre-hypertension)
Kidney function - normal
Still got some way to go on cholesterol and a little more weight to lose but these results have made me feel quite proud of myself.
All praise to LCHF - and thank you to all you good exponents of its virtues without whom I would have still been eating spuds!
Edited to include a PS: and I have just received a Contour Next One blood glucose monitor in the post. I didn't order it. I already have a monitor - perhaps it was sent by the BG fairy?
Peace and lots of love to all x x x
Thank you very much xWell done @LindsayJane. Great news!
Thank you so much xxx@LindsayJane Wow that is honestly fantastic, I am so happy for you!
I didnt realise they would be on line but am very pleased to have found them! Thank you xxFantastic results! Well done you!
