Hi all
I need to buy one of those "do it at home" Blood Glucose Monitors for my mom. Can someone recommend a good one. She is not covered by insurance so I have to pay out of pocket :(...so if there is a good reasonably priced mnitor out there some one is using it would be a great help

Hi, welcome to the board! I use a Accu Chek Active that was running about $19.99 and the strips run about $29.99 for a box of 50 of them. Results within 5 seconds and only need a small amount of blood that can either be dropped onto the testing strip or put on the strip than inserted into the meter. Here is a list of what you can get if you order it online or find a place where you live that carries that meter with all the accessories.
We are available 24 hours a day.
