[Diabetes-Talk] Question About The Pongo or Pogo Glucose Monitor.

[Lisa Belville]

Hi, Eileen.  It's called Pogo.  The app to use it is called patterns.  I 
downloaded it and got registered, but I never purchased the meter, so I 
can't speak to how accessible it is when used with the Pogo monitor. I 
believe the unit uses Bluetooth pairing to work with the app.


This would be good for someone who has consistent difficulty with a 
finger stick.  It would be too expensive to use several times a day as 
each cartridge only has 10 lancets, but it would still give someone a 
good idea of what foods do to blood sugar.
