Guest guest Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Hi , Thank you for letting me know that you haven't had a reply from BBI Health Care. I have just been in contact by phone with them, and I have spoken with a lady named, Sian . She has indicated that the person dealing with that particular Email address, has been off sick for a few days, and hopefully will be back in the office tomorrow, Wednesday 23rd, or Thursday. Why they seem to train only one person to handle this particular Email address, I haven't a clue! So I hope both you and should get a reply when he returns back to work. All I can do, is humbly apologise for any difficulties that you are having. Rowe introduction and prodigy update > > > > > > > Hi Everybody, > > > > > > Sorry, about that.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Danny, It never hurts to ask questions! Re: introduction and prodigy update Hi , Thanks for the info. I have some protein spillage, but I' am not at kidney failure yet. So I probably will not qualify for a transplant. Perhaps I should ask my doctor some questions though!

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Hi Otis, Everybody will like to hear this! After phoning the company, I found out that Diagnostic Devices will swap the have to be coded meter for self coding meters. All one will have to do is take it back to where it was purchased and swap it for a new self coding Prodigy meter once it is available. Isn't that great?! I will keep everybody updated. Ruth Re: introduction and prodigy update Hi Ruth, I'm from BC and have had diabetes for 15 years (I'm only 24 so I think the youngest on the list). I didn't know the Prodigy meter and strips were available in Canada. Welcome to the list. Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
