RE: Which Blood Glucose Meter ?? by Allen Taylor - written 27/04/2009 12:07:37


Hi

I use an Abbott Optium Xceed meter. Small sample, 3 second results, very large memory for past results along with averages. It also has a backlight and a large and easy to read display. It is small enough to fit into my back trouser pocket unlike some other monstrosities out there. I do not like the new Trueone meter although it seems a good idea, although the Trueone will not have much of a memory for keeping past results. Minus point of the Xceed, like ALL other glucose meters it only uses Windoze for its software. I don't own, and never will own a Windoze anything I do not use the accompanying finger pricker as I use a much better Accu-Chek Softclix plus..

Hi.

I just wanted to get a feel for which meter you currently use and the plus and minus points of the Blood Glucose Meter ie No Back Light, Too Small etc etc.

I currently use the New Wavesense Jazz Meter which is a great looking meter with backlight, no coding, large display, 5 second results. I hope to have more details on the Wavesense Meter in the next few weeks so please keep looking. I came across one of the smallest meters I have seen which is the New TRUEone Meter - which is basically a meter on top of the test strip container - very small and very cool. It fits in your pocket and also does not need coding - keep looking at my site for more details soon.

Thanks again and I look forward to your information.

 

Andrew
