[Diabetes-talk] loading strips in the Prodigy Voice

[Star Gazer]

Hi Joy. 
Your depression technique works beautifully. 
The lancing device I recived just says Prodigy on it.
Now, for another question, do I place my pricked finger on what I think of
as the leading edge of the strip (the one opposite the end that goes in), or
do I place it on top of the strip very close to the leading edge. 
My husband and I are disagreeing about which edge I need to use and I think
it's a terminology problem.

Hi!
I feel for the depression line with my finger nail and that is the side that
goes in facing up.

The lancing device I use is the Soft Click.  I do not know which one you
received with your meter.  I am sure the name is printed on the side of the
device.

Good luck!

Fondly, Joy
(smart person?  Not always sure.)
