>> As with every meter on the market today (hype to the despite

>> 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,
>> 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

>> if/once I get it.
>>
>> Thanks.
