[Diabetes-talk] Questions About the Prodigy Voice ...

[Mike Freeman]

Eileen:

As with every meter on the market today (hype to the despite 
notwithstanding), the only way you'll truly know if you haven't got 
enough blood on the strip is if the readings don't make sense. Solution: 
just do another test.

The other bothersome problem with the meter is that because of the 
strip-ejection mechanism (which is nice at times but not truly 
necessary), one must be careful to ensure that when inserting the strip, 
it rests on the floor of the square-shaped groove that is on the bottom 
half of the clamshell comprising the Voice's case. If you insert the 
strip, always sliding it in so that it's touching the bottom of the 
groove (as opposed to just shoving it into the clamshell somewhere in 
the vicinity), you'll have little or no trouble.

Aside from this, the only thing you need worry about is that the strips 
you are given actually say they're for the Voice on the box.

Other than that, I find the meter pretty reliable although some of the 
initial meters had some quality control problems.

Hi:

I've requested my doctor send a perscription in to my pharmacy plan for 
the Prodigy Voice meter.  Can some of you refresh my memory as to some 
of the problems that you've had with the Prodigy Voice.  I recall a 
discussion on one or two, maybe three, things some of you were having 
problems with.  I'd just like to be aware of some of the possible issues 
if/once I get it.

Thanks.

Eileen
