Guest guest Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 I got my meter out, got the CD in and got it read through for the first time. will read it again in the morning. but got to get some one over here with eye balls to read what the range is on the test solution so I can run a practice test a few times. don't think my honey can read that small print even with her glasses. the instructions sound a lot like the meter I use to have. but this prodigy voice is a little thing compared to the big old acue check I had about ten years ago. they certainly have improved over the years and come down in cost. Just wanted you guys to know I haven't forgot my meter and how we should get along and be buddies again. how many strips do you think I should tell my doc I need him to write a scrip for? some of you say from 4 to 10 and all between. I was thinking maybe ask for eight. this would give me before and after all 3 meals and 2 extra for when ever. I know my insurance will cover most of the cost, but does strips still cost around a dollar each like they once did? I know what it is like to get over in the doughnut hole on the insurance and it isn't a good place to be. I don't suppose there is a generic strip for a meter? I see where the Prodigy people say only there strips will work on there meter. but I can understand this because they can't make the money if I got strips from some where else even if they would work. ok, I'm going to bed now and will concern my self with all of it again to morrow. to day was the second day in a roll I've done very well and I even felt better to boot. still would love to grab a package of Oreo cookies out of the closet, but I keep walking by and shooting the middle finger at the closet for support. it makes me feel better anyway. I'm really not being nasty, I'm only telling the cookies that I'm number one and to good to hang out with the likes of them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
