[Diabetes-Talk] difficulty testing my sugar level

[Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter]

Do you lotion after every testing? I've been testing for over 30 years, and
I lotion often, and I don't often get calluses. And I test 6 to 8 times a
day.

Does it really work?  I sure would like to try to get one.  My fingers are
so calloused from 35 years of testing.

Could the Freestyle Libre be helpful here?  That needs a prescription and
scans your blood sugar without you needing to extract blood.
