[Diabetes-talk] Diabetes-talk Digest, Vol 80, Issue 21

Hi.  I find my Prodigy meter works fine for me.  But be sure you have a 
reliable supplier of test strips that are not having trouble with being 
accepted as a provider by Abama Care.  Evidently, hospitals, doctors, and 
suppliers who have protested big cuts in reimbursements are being bypassed, 
so that you may find that hospitals, doctor offices and suppliers are having 
big trouble.

I'm frankly glad I have only a few more years on this Earth.   --   "Bill

Hi,

I found this Embrace glucose meter on the Maxi Aids web site and it sounds
interesting.  I?m wondering if anyone is or has used it and what you might
have found, positive or negative about its accessibility.

Thanks in advance.

So sweetheart, I don't even have any desire to get on the "Maxi Aids'"
web site.  So, what's the meter?  Is it Solo V2, or whatever?  Most web
sites monitor whoever gets on and off their sites and I don't even want
to be known to get on theirs.

Oops!!  Sorry gang.  I missed the name here.  It's  "Embrace.  Sorry.  I
stand corrected!!

No.  I haven't used that, on a regular basis.  I've seen them before.
As I see it, it's merely a sort of copy of the Prodigy Voice.

MMM ... I may have a meter like that, i.e., a Prodigy Voice clone. But I
thought someone once told me the embrace was kind of like the prodigy
autocode in that it said the reading once and required sighted assistance to
review past readings from memory. But I could be way off-base here.
