You are right - blood glucose meters are an important part of toolkit for good control. However, people with Type 1 diabetes generally get their meters free nowadays, and people with Type 2 can buy them cheaply at the chemist. Of course provision of test strips for people with Type 2 is another issue entirely... Therefore, as meters are generally easily obtained I don't feel that it would benefit people who visit www.input.me.uk to see them here. Meter reviews and comparisons can be seen on some of the other websites we link to, and I would especially recommend this one: http://mendosa.com/meters.htm Best wishes Lesley Hi Josie

It's £3.49 from the app store but I found it really useful especially when I was eating out cause it includes carb amount for different take away foods i.e KFC, Buger King, Mcdonalds etc and if it helps others like it helps me. When I first had problems with my Diabetes I looked on this site and found the information very useful about applying for funding for my insulin pump and getting the right hospital and consultant to manage my Diabetes and to put me on a insulin pump and help me tighten my diabetic control and give me back my freedom and I would like to share information with you that can help other patients like this site helped me.
