[Diabetes-talk] newly diagnosed

[Mark Tardif]

Hi, Rachel,

I am still finding that a bit tricky.  I find that it seems to make a 
difference how much blood I actually get when I prick my finger.  If I can 
get enough blood, it seems to happen more quickly and I also think I get 
more accurate readings.  I like to rub the end of the strip lengthwise along 
that part of my finger, that also seems to help as well.

Hi, all.

Do you guys have any tips for getting the blood from finger to strip? When I
tried to test before with a separate lancet, I couldn't get the blood from
my finger to the strip.
