[Diabetes-Talk] Lancing devices.

[Veronica Elsea]

Here's my current update. Just for fun, I walked down to my local pharmacies
to see what they carried. I found one called the Autolet Impression. It has
an interesting feature which I haven't tried yet. Not only do you have 7
depth choices, but you also have three spring strength choices. They are two
different things you turn to make the adjustment. You have three different
strengths which, according to their P R, you can use to make up for the need
to go deeper. 
I also bought some FreeStyle lancets which seem to work well so far, even
with my FreeStyle lancing device, even though replacing the cap isn't quite
as fast as the BD ones were. However, these days, if it gives me blood, I'll
take it.
I'll let you know how the research goes. It really does come down to trial
and error for each individual though.

Hi All,
  I use the fast clicks, which I believe are also Accucheck.  I like them,
because the needles come in a little drum so there aren't any exposed sharp
ends.  I think there are six in a drum, and you have a
switch on the lancing device to change needles.   Hope this helps.
Doula
