| Glad to hear you're having success Beadie!
Two suggestions:
1. (and the medical community seems completely clueless about this, but) When you prick your fingers, use the sides - less nerves there. I've also heard other members here suggest the backs of fingers for the same reason.
2. Depending on what meter is being used, you may be able to use "alternate sites" for testing: arms, legs, etc. Check your meter literature to see if you can w/ your new meter. Important: If you suspect a low, ALWAYS use your fingers for testing - somehow they know faster than the rest of your body.
I wish you continued success,
HeatherP
