Thank you for explaining this so clearly! After watching several videos and reviewing the pamphlet, your video gave the most clarity in each step of this process.
Thank you for taking the time to give very easy-to-follow instructions because the inserts in the box are no help at all for someone who was prescribed this equipment to make sure whether diabetes care is in my future or not.
Thank you very much for this video. I was diagnosed with reactive hypoglycemia and just brought this kit home from the drugstore today. This was VERY helpful!
Thanks for this very helpful video. I just wanted to keep an eye on my sugar levels so I got this device but the instructions wasn't clear, you made using this so easy.
Thank you so much we are helping my Dad and the cvs personal did not wanted to show us how to use it and he was very rude he did not even scan the strips we no had and I call the doctor and the receptionist made an appointment within 2weeks omg 😱 thank you so so much🌹❤️ it is really helpfull😍🙏👍🌼❤️🌹
You can also push the lancing device button up with Cap on to get the Cap off at the beginning instead of pressing the arrows on the side if you want another option to get the Cap removed at the beginning due to it is kind of hard to get it pulled off. I put the lancing device cupped in my hand to stop the Cap from shooting somewhere else besides your palm.
The device is the same as the one I used 18 years ago. The new one Libre 3 sensor is the best so far. No poking. It’s only inconvenient if you don’t travel a lot. I do recommend libre 3 to elders. It's pricey (depend on the health insurance). I paid $75 for 2 and you must replace every 14 days. You need it to monitor your diet. Once you know what food to avoid, you can switch back to this Libre lite device.
You forgot one last thing, how to safely get rid of the used lancet. After use point the pen downwards and push the used lancet into the big opening of the twisted off cap(positioned sturdy on the table's surface). While its sharp part is safely recapped again, you then can reject the lancet from the pen.
Nice, I use FreeStyle libre with Nightrider, it help me to continuous track the glucose on the phone. They are a game changer, save me having to do multiple finger pricks everyday.
I put the same for my son but for 5 days it go from his body. And something other is that it doesn't show the corect mesure with pricks. Did it happen to you?
My parents are using this glucometer for last 2 years,but now all the strips gone.From where can I buy it in India.any idea??checked Amazon & Flipcart ,the have only Optimum.
Walmart or Walmart Co partners sells them in there pharmacy I just bought a 50 pack for 81 dollars Idk know how much they will cost you in India but I know Walmart has stores out there
Hi, i've the same unit but i can't open the battery door. On this one it doesn't have a small slit so you can slide the door off the battery. Can you give us also a quick demo on how to open the battery door to change the battery please.
I purchased this same kit from my Pharmacy a few days ago. I cannot get the needle to come out far enough to stick myself, draw a blood sample. I've tried it a bunch of times and same result, no stick. This replaces another device I previously used for several years and never had a problem with it but this one seems to be defective. Will be calling Abbott tomorrow to discuss. Seems like a pretty cheap, inexpensive product def will not purchase again.
i also have the same device but how I can change it from mmol/l to mg/dl? I read the operation manual but I did not find anything about the change. I would be very glad if someone can help me...
you can't. it is programmed automatically this way and it should be mg/dl this is per the operating manual. if not, and still under warranty, then i would contact the company for resolution.
Thank you for explaining this so clearly! After watching several videos and reviewing the pamphlet, your video gave the most clarity in each step of this process.
Ditto! The other videos I could find were not especially clear on actually taking the reading
Thank you I just helped my mom because of this video
Thank you so much. We had a hard time getting this to work. Now with explicit instructions I think I will have success!
Thank you for taking the time to give very easy-to-follow instructions because the inserts in the box are no help at all for someone who was prescribed this equipment to make sure whether diabetes care is in my future or not.

I hope you figured it out, you just put a little pressure on the door and then it should slide off.

MIne has issues reading the blood. Even my wife a RN can't make it always read the blood. I have thrown away at least 25 strips for failing to read..
what does er-3 mean
BE ADVISED THE STRIPS HAVE A HIGHT RATE OF FAILURE
Hi. Thos is my first week using this monitor. Are you to add the blood sideways on the dot or on top?
Have you encountered any issues with accuracy?
