I'd love to be able to test on my arm... supposed to be able to with my meter (OneTouch Ulta). However, I have such trouble getting enough of an itty bitty drop of blood out of my arm to fill the strip and when I squeeze to help it along I end up with a little bruise. I've tried lancing and then holding the device pressed against my arm for several seconds afterward (per directions), yet it still produces an insufficient amount of blood.
Does anyone else have this problem? What's the best way to get this technique to work?
Best wishes,
Angie and her ouchy fingers.
