Besides Liberty Medical, what other places provide the free diabetic testing supplies.?
If you've used them that you appreciate their service? The company I work with many different insurance companies. If I use my insurance and buy my products over the counter (pharmacist) or have gone through my "recipes by e-mail service provided by my insurance there, I would still have to pay co-pay. The company I use makes it so I do not pay a penny and never see a bill. I do not need to act again. These beautiful little boxes just on my doorstep full of test strips, lancets every two months. I'm not sure that your experience will be the same, but I recommend that you check it. Edge Park Surgical 1-800-321-0591 I give them a 10 out of 10, we use A-plus medical care, and they are great. never a copay or deductible for insulin and much more. www.aplusmedicalsupply.com See advertising section on back of the diabetes journals. I have seen ads in some of them, but I can not remember the names of the companies.

Does anyone know where I can find less expensive diabetic test strips?
I have been searching for a while, and I can not find any non-expensive test strips. I have to do without for a while. Do not worry, I'm not a full-blown diabetes, I was mainly there for my own sake, so I'm not diabetic. (I have hypoglycemia, however.) My system is a true track smart system, if it helps you. Please and thanks! use of the Omni-pod that Nick Jonas Nick If you live in the Netherlands, your doctor will give them the strips are expensive, no matter what you look like "it changed my life." Your best bet is to get a script doctor, and go through insurance. The copay is generally very small. Internet doing a search there are many ways to find them cheaper. Until now the cheapest True Track Strips, (but I doubt the accuracy), and in my area, sells Wal Mart Pharmacy them the cheapest, but I choose to pay more dollars than a week in line for my recipe! I think Kroger pharmacies are also very affordable. Have you checked online? Hello. TrueTrack is made by Home Diagnostics! The company also makes the Prestige IQ blood glucose strips blood! The price range is $ 17 - $ 26 per box of 58 strips! This site has sales of these strips (about $ 16/box) http://wwwambercity.com/10402.html Hope this helps!.

Would Medicaid pay for testing supplies and provide insurance for an unemployed diabetic?
I reasearching for my brother in Georgia. He is currently unemployed and have difficulties finding or keeping a steady job because of his type 1 diabetes and other psychological problems and physical. It should also be able to help him out of the county where the type of insurance to Georgia to seek low-income people. Most states have something (usually some form of Medicaid) but should apply. Unfortunately, we have difficulty keeping a job. I've never been able to get a job at all. I have epilepsy as well. In California, Medicaid will not pay for test strips. But you can get free meters to several places online. We get our lancets Wal-Mart, because it is cheaper there. Ruth, I want him to go to social services in the region, and Medicaid. Probably it was given. It should be an administrator should be helping. I do not know the status of policies, but his doctor Ga

What does it mean when you get a diabetic test and it says fair?
So I had a physical a little "and I'm trying to do my job all the paper looks like when I went to test for diabetes and rightly so. What does this mean? Also shows my sugar level is 60 , which is a good or bad? You should consult your doctor. They are the experts who can answer this question for you. I hope you find the answers you want! Tom http://www.westerndiabetic.com a sugar the blood of 60 is very low. When to seek assistance from an endocrinologist. I have no idea what you mean by "right." It's a deadline and not a medical term. The blood glucose of 60 mg / dL or 3.3 mmol / L is below average but not abnormal. I would interpret blood glucose as normal and ignore the comment I'd like to test your blood sugar (glucose) is "right". If I can be of further assistance please let me know. I wish you the best of health and in all things God bless you.

Daughter just diagnosed diabetic aged 10yrs What do you think of me testing her blood from ear or toes?
The questions and answers are great on diabetes community to give me your opinion. I can not see why not, but try talking to your doctor, nurse tells how they can best x Now test your fingers on the most common place to meet blood sugar. Part of the reason is that there is a less painful area as the skin of the fingers in a rough and not as sensitive as the skin on your toes. Ears.I does not speak to this idea, try your daughter there for you. Put yourself in their position as often as possible is the best way for them and you get more with the challenges that know both types of diabetes are included. Oh and I always recommend a second opinion. (Oh, and the needle in your finger, is uncomfortable for a short period and that's it.) Good luck and good health wishes to you two! Fast facts I know for sure 100% that it strikes out for children after testing at the track, and it is not something I would repeat again. Familiar to the ear, but personally, I finger the moment, especially as newly diagnosed, and it takes time to adjust diabetes. I did for my grandmother so toes, she was diabetic and his fingers were thick and hardened by years of study on their fingers. I do not have ears done.so I'm not sure we will see. fails to use to test blood sugar. Diabetics can develop circulation problems, and it is usually the feet and legs, the first hit. It will only create problems and the risk of infection with this. They are probably not enough blood from his ear. Besides the fact that it would be painful and leave marks and scars on the faces of people see every day. There is a reason to say your fingers.you use the best outcome is to get blood, it is less painful (unless you use the side of the finger, not the base). there are some meters that come with the poker set fingers, so you can try your arm (which can sometimes be less painful), but not always give accurate results. Reading is a specific body part No. Do glucose tests in the ear or toe. Only your fingers. No thumb or index finger away. I was diagnosed with diabetes almost two months, and believe me it is hard to beat, but I'm sure he'll be fine. Good luck! You must use your fingers, you will be more accurate reading. There is also a much less painful, because we use our fingers as much. But you should not use the index finger. Use your finger more than you think, and be very painful. Middle and ring fingers work best, and do not forget to put the face and embrace the finger not the milk. The accuracy of blood glucose is influenced by where they draw blood. there are some meters that come with the poker set fingers, so you can try your arm (which can sometimes be less painful), but not always give accurate results.

'm a diabetic patient and i would have some unusual results when i'm testing my blood sugar. sometimes it will?
I am a diabetic and would like to have some unusual results when I test my blood sugar. Sometimes it will be 150, 180 and 200 mg / dl two hours after the meal, but sometimes it would be 70, 80, 120 and 127 md / dl after dinner. Please can someone tell these symptoms are related to him? I am also a type II diabetic. Keep a food diary, maybe what you eat is answer.My guess, the numbers are higher after eating carbohydrates alone, the lower numbers after eating balanced meals seems you have type 2 diabetes. I understand that you are not a diet plan and not eating the same thing every day. Many things can affect the levels of BG. If you have diabetes, you will see this reflected in abnormal values. Things that may affect BG levels: medication (for diabetes and other conditions)-stress-disease-exercise-diet (high carbohydrate, low-carbohydrate, high-fat, changes in the foods you eat). -Other medical conditions you have, other factors if you are diagnosed with diabetes if your doctor can have all this explained or referred to a health professional (nurse, dietitian, etc.) that can. If your doctor has not even put you in control of basic knowledge about their disease and to love them, I suggest you have a doctor who really cares and is willing to help. Looks like you have given your doctor a diagnosis and nothing else. They would not tell a cancer patient they have cancer, and then they go dry. Finding a better team of health care and a referral to another doctor. * * It has a lot of type 2-diabetes is associated with the information there, but no diabetes training base to replace a doctor. Good luck! I agree with Reginach.It sounds like you do not have enough information about glucose and speed of different foods and different mixtures of food. If you have Type 2, you have a high sugar content to avoid, if you type 1 you should carefully count the sugar, if you reside in a rice-eating countries, for example, gives rice to a lot of blood sugar, but very slowly , whereas if you live in a bread-eating country, bread (especially white) gives you 50% sugar in just 5 minutes, especially when alone. Perhaps the differences between measurements is only due to the differences between the meal you just had? Try to eat and insulin protocols for advice!.
