    The free ones u get aren't very good tbh. The best one I got was the clear clip case but was £15. Fits very snug in case and clips securely.

    I have both (got two mobile meters)
    If you don't take insulin, go for the small one. If you do take insulin, go for the large one, you can keep the meter, pens, needles and lancelets.
    My large case is two year old and is used every day, and shows no sign of wear.

    I am not on insulin yet, though BS keeps going up and meds have been changed several times in the past few months and climbing again :( at this rate could well end up on insulin sooner than later. The meter is in the post, waiting to get my mits on it to see what its like to use.

    I love the Bayer contour next USB, being small compact easy to carry and the software is great to use. I want to see if the mobile is more suitable when out and about, being as every thing is all in one.

    Hi
    Can I ask why you use viscotears, I use that too, and I put it down to when I had a stroke followed by bells palsy, and since then I have a prob with dry sticky eyes, could it be a symptom of diabetes?

    Not a symptom of diabetes with me, my eye lubricating ducts don't work properly.
