I too live in Canada and have the oracle meter and it works well, there is no

problem getting strips. as the Canadian diabetes association for assistance

getting this.

meeters.

Hi all:

It has been a long time since I was on the list at least participating. I have

had a terrible three years. Anyways on to the

subject. I have an acuecheck machine with the voice mate 2. I have found it

the best meeter I have ever tried. The voice is a

human voice not a computer voice. Very clear. Also I was able to set up

everything myself and I didn't need any sighted asistance

at all. Wonderful. It is working very well right now but I got a very

unwelcome phone call today. They called me and said that it

was discontinued and they are no longer supporting it at all. I am hoping that

I can still get strips and stuff. Can anyone tell

me about a good meeter that allows me to be independant as I am now? I am

living in Canada so I will of course need one that is

available there. I am in the midst of getting my sugar back under control. I

had so many things going on in the last three years

that I have not been consintrating on my sugar as I should. When my husband

was sick I was caring for him at home. I lost him

though on August the eighth 2010. Then this year just about one hear later, I

lost my step dad to bladder cancer. Now just three

months later, I lost my mother. She had a stroke and lived for a week after,

but she died on November fifteenth. This has just

been awful and I have been suffering from deep deepression. It is terrible to

say, but I went through a period where I really

didn't care what happened anymore. Especially after died. i really am

trying to get my a1c back down. It was up to ten at

one time and just last week when I was tested I had it down to 7.3. I am

really working hard now on my diet. I hope all of you

have a merry merry Christmas and that you will have a Happy New Year.

called the present.

Hi :

Do you know if it does everything the acuecheck did? Can you get it to repeat

what your blood sugar was? Can you get the averages

for two weeks or a month? Does it have the time and date on it? Can I set it

up myself? Sorry for all the questions. I am so

upset that this machine is discontinued. It was just right for me. You could

even keep track of your insulin and your carb intake.

Sorry for stepping in here, but , I am afraid that the answer is no, to

all of your question! I have one, and all it does, is to give you the

reading once, and can not repeat! I had the Accuchek also, and there is no

comparison! Unfortunately, this is the only one that I am aware of, that is

available in Canada! One huge advantage, is that it is free with your first

pack of strips! Were you told that the whole system is not going to be made

any more, or only the voice box? I wish that they would make their other

meter accessible!

The Solo V2 is a completely audible meter designed for the blind, but I don't

know of the availability of strips in Canada. I understand Prodigy Voice meters

and strips are available at Wal-Mart and other local stores. Let me know if you

find out if either the Solo or Prodigy Voice are covered in CA. Both these

meters have audio feed-back equivalent to your Voicemate.

No, they are not available in Canada! Yes, we can order them from the US

but they will not be covered!

Hello, ,

Your recent difficulties boggle my mind and I just put you on my heroes

list for working on getting your blood sugar under control. This

indicates your commitment to life despite all your losses. Carry on.

I use a talking meter from E77 Electronics in Hungary, which is widely

available in Europe. I will see if they distribute in Canada or if they

would sell to you directly. They don't have a distributor where I am

but sell to me directly.
