My wife is one if the hospital's diabetes educator. Let me see if I can get her get one meter free or not. There always get from pharma sales ppl one. There are plenty of brands around. The one I am currently using to check routinely is the Bayer Contour TS which is easy to use as no coding is required. Amont of blood used also very little. Test strip s about 30 bucks per 50 strip if I not mistaken...

Johnson & Johnson good and not too ex.

 

Once battery runs out, they come to you to do a 1 to 1 exchange.

 

J&J any model in particular?

 

The battery very special? I think they do 1 to 1 only for the warranty period, right?

 

Any idea what is the running course like? Did some google check somehow has the impression that the machine use to monitor is like a home inkjet printer. Machine not very exp but is the consumable that is exp.

Thank bro for the offer! Sincerely appreciate your offer. But paisay la

 

But it will be a good idea for u to cope some and give the needy elderly. :wub:

 

Hey can help me ask your wife what to look out for when buying one and any good model that she know.

 

Bayer and the accu-chek if I am not wrong are the common brand in SG

Model is Horizon.

It's a concealed unit and exchangeable throughout the use. Its probably factored into the sales of the strips.

 

Get the test strips from Jb Tesco as its much cheaper. One buck per piece ~
