<DIV>Hello All: </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I spoke with Bio Sense and they are still manufacturing the Solus V2 meter
& test strips. I was told by a rep at Bio-Sense that Arriva is no
longer carrying their meter/strips since they are now selling another
meter/brand. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Since I want to continue using the Solus V2, I asked for suppliers and here
are the names/phone numbers of 2 companies that carry the Solus V2
supplies. I went with <FONT face="Times New Roman"><FONT
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Diabetic care service & pharmacy. As all of
these medical supply companies are on the initial call, they were very nice and
took all my information to start setting up an account and to contact my
doctor. The two companies are:</FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Hi Angela & All: </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I also use Ariva and when you sent this I was concerned about my Solus V2
supplies. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I called Ariva this morning and the phone rep I spoke with told me that
they were “out of stock” on the Solus V2 supplies. I don’t think she
knew what she was talking about because she said the manufacturer, which is
Bio-Sense, was also out of supplies (backordered). She then went on to try
to talk me into accepting a shipment of an Embrace meter. From previous
comments on the National NFB Diabetes list, the Embrace is a talking
meter, but from what they have said, it is not as good as either the Solus
V2 or Prodigey meters. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My next step will be to call both Bio-Sense to find out if they are still
manufacturing said meter & strips, and then to contact Medicare to find out
who other approved suppliers are. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If any one else on this list finds out more information about this, I’d
greatly appreciate being kept in the updated-loop.</DIV>
