[Diabetes-talk] accessible glucommiters?

[NCBootman]

One possibility that may help for checking the reading is to get a connector 
from whoever your diabetic supply provider is and send your results to the 
computer. That may be more user friendly for you. I use the Clever Check and 
really only use the feature of checking the reading I'm using now. The 
prodigy Voice is also more accessible I'm told. I don't know which flavor of 
Prodigy you may have.
