| kdm1709's Full Review: Therasense Freestyle Blood Glucose Monitoring Syst... |
I am not actually even pre-diabetic, but I decided to start monitoring my blood glucose levels due to the number of diabetics in my family. I found this meter on eBay for less than $20. The enclosed instructions are very helpful, there is a full-color cheat sheet of sorts, showing where you can test (which is just about anywhere, but more on that later) and all the error codes.
This meter is incredibly easy to use, you just load the strips in the meter, load the lancet and slide the strip next to the site to soak up the blood sample. It beeps when you have enough and it beeps again when it tells you your reading.
You can test practically anywhere, which I like because I hate pricking my fingers. I test on the side of my leg and I barely feel it.
The meter stores your 14-day average as well as keeps your last 250 readings.
