    The Lancet/Needle can be poked into the round cover, so it is safer! And don't use the first bit of blood, it may contain tissue/skin/water, use the second drop for precise messurement.

    We just purchased the Contour Next ONE and are not impressed! Even though there is now a yellow banner on the box, saying "New", the only thing that seems to be `new', is that they no longer provide the 10 testing strips or the Control Solution in the box. After getting home and trying to set up the meter for testing, I read on page 33 of the manual that we should use the Control Solution before the first use, as well as after opening a new bottle of testing strips. Since we had no idea that we even needed this Control Solution BEFORE we purchased the meter and strips, we cannot confidently use the meter until we return to the pharmacy ( 45 minutes away) to buy the CS. So, it appears that what is NEW, is that Ascensia has gotten CHEAP.

      You are definitely right that they should include lancets, strips and control solution in the package. You can give bayer ascension a call on Monday if you have time. I believe bayer has good customer service. You can explained the situation, they should help you out this way. In the past, I called meter is working but test strips are not reading correctly in the machine, bayer always helping to reset it and make it work again or send replacement. In the mean time, you can use the machine without control solution for now. Contour is one the good brand (if they can make the strip less expensive, it will help a lot)

      Sorry to hear that: you need to try the best setting that fits you the most. Another thing is different brand of lancets has slightly longer or shorter needles. My suggestion is once it’s good number setting for you, stick with the same brand. This will make your experience a lot easier especially if you need to test everyday.

    I have recently purchased this kit, but it is completely useless. I have the lancer set to level 5, but it barely even breaks the skin on my fingers and doesn't break the skin at all on my hand. The amount of blood that comes out is microscopic. You couldn't even say it is a drop, just a very small red dot. The machine cannot register such a small amount of blood. I have gone through 20 or so test strips, but not once has the machine managed to read my blood. I took the machine back to where I purchased it and exchanged it for a new one. Still, the same problem with a new machine. The lancer is too weak to cause significant enough penetration and bleeding.

    • @EmmarcoPro
      @EmmarcoPro  2 года назад

      It sounds to me it is not the machine or the test strips. It is the Lancet Gauge. The usual Gauge, the most common ones are 29, 30, 31 or even 32. the bigger the number the smaller the needle (hurts less) . It depends on how thick is one's skin(by profession or other). If it is not enough blood, you can try to buy the 27 or 28 gauge lancets. I would just imaging it will hurt a little, but you should get blood out easier this way. Hopefully it will work for you.

    I can't imagine a worse app. It's a complete nightmare and enough of a reason to not buy this glucometer

      Couldn't agree more. In the app the high readings are white on orange. No contrast. Really difficult to see. The test result graphs are not intuitive. Results are arranged by time of day and not by calander days. The 1970's era display on the meter is poor as well. This appears to be the replacement for the contour next USB. The USB port charged the batteries. This new one does not. The contour next one is a tremendous leap. Backwards.
