Amy might not agree (she doesn’t seem to like the Animas pump), but I really like the Accu-Chek meter, in fact, Friday after using it for just a couple of tests, I asked the endo’s office to get me a 30 day script (which I just got), and just a few minutes ago I asked for a 90 day script from Medco. I also called Accu-Chek and demanded a new meter (that’s the best way to go), and it’s on the way. As I told them, I didn’t want to have to rush around and find a pharmacy and i like to keep a spare around just in case.
There is something about the shape, the display, and especially the whirring that just makes my Geeky heart happy. I love the fact that it matches my pump and my CGMS — all three are black.
I like the gold display, it’s very easy to read.
And again, I like the whirring. I also like the fact that it "knows" the control solution, and that everything including the lancing device is all i one unit.
Doesn’t take much to make me happy == for example, I am really thrilled because I could download Jimmy Buffet music and play it on Rock Band!
