RE: Question about using the lancet

[Guest guest]

Ricky, they always say to do only the sides of your fingers. I think after you

get used to that it won't bother you so much. I read braille and have no

trouble at all with that, I think because I'm only using the sides of my fingers

for blood tests. Why not give it some more tries andlet us know how you make

out. Cheers.

Whenever you find you are on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and

reflect.

Question about using the lancet

Hi all, I have a question about testing my bg. I've tried pricking my finger

with the lancet on the side and it bruises every time. So I've been doing it on

the bottoms. I know if I keep that up they are going to get callused at first I

was worried because I'm a Braille reader but haven't read Braille in a long time

so thought oh well if they get to tough to read Braille it won't be the end of

the world.

Anyway, my question is how do I properly do the pricking. I haven't taken my

diabetic class yet that's on the 26th.

Ricy,

The sides of the finers are best, but whatever is working for you will be

okay until you have your class.

Dear Ricky, I do the pricking right in the middle or close to it. Lately

though I have switch hands because it seems like the fingers on my left hand

needed a brake. It is not easy doing it on the right hand. Sincerely
