Hi Lisa! The only other choice that I am aware of is the Prodigy Voice. It is completely accessible just like the one you are using now. Just make sure you get the one with the word voice after it! There is a talking meter called the. Prodigy, but all it does is read you the blood sugar. You cannot set it up or change anything on your own.

I have tried numerous times to reset the date, but the setting returns to the 2014 date once the machine is turned off and restarted.  I tried a new set of batteries and this didn't fix the issue.

Try to have your new batteries right there on hand and ready to insert in the correct direction. I think the faster and smoother the swap from old to new makes it more likely you will not lose the memory.
