do any of you pay any attention to the size of the lancets these meters use?
one touc huses 28G
freestyle uses 25G
Accuchek uses 28G
you need not suffer the consequences of having to stick in your arm and sacrifice not having an accurate reading. there is a 3mg/dl/min difference in forearm testing vs. fingertips, esp on lows, you must use the fingertips.....other meters eg freestyle, say its virtualy painfree testing*
*alternate site, why go alternate site, cause it is painful on the fingertips!

solution: get a BD 30G lacet that fits all your lancet devices with depth setting of 1, small lancet means less pain, now you can test with more comfort,
want an even more comfortable way of testing, ask for a bd logic meter 0.3microliters, 5 sec test time and 33G lancet(smallest lancet so far) less painful vs. other meters. Can you use the 33G lancet with other meters, sure you can but you have to adjust the depth setting to a deeper one or a possibility of a restick because of not enough blood, meaning more painful again, the solution 30G lancet for other meters, 33G or logic.

Just depends what your preference is.
