| I think where you've been testing has been fine for an alternate site...just remember anytime you test and get an "off" result, either high or low, retest using your fingers, as these are the most accurate results.
I was watching Dlife the other day and someone on there was testing on his thigh...not sure I could find enough blood there myself, but he did fine with it.
