[Diabetes-Talk] difficulty testing my sugar level

[Milton Ota]

Hi,
I presume you are using the Prodegy Meter, if not what meter are you using?
I find you might want to run your hand under warm water for a few 
minutes, wipe dry and then test. Try that and see if you abe able to 
get blood on your test strip.
