I just started pumping 2 weeks ago so my BD meter should be as new as they get. At higher numbers it is about 30 points higher than my UltraSmart. At lower numbers that changes to 15-20 points different. But when I was feeling BAD in the middle of the night and the BD read 70-something and my US read 50-something I just didn't feel I could trust it. Then there's the problem of paying double for the BD strips over the US ones because of my insurance. I've used the US ever since it came out and know how I feel in relation to its readings. So .. I upload the pump info with the BD meter - I use Carelink also - but that's all I do with it.

I got the Paradigm Pal with my pump, but haven't used it. Is it the same as Carelink, but you just don't have to be on the internet to use it? Anyone know?
