Accu-check compact testing on forearm

[Guest guest]

Hi Ken..

It takes a little finesse to get used to it. You don't get a lot of

blood...so sometimes you have to " pump " it on your forearm. Just push

it up and down ten times or so to get more blood on the

blooddrop....you'll get the hang of it. It really doesn't hurt, pushing

on your arm. Nothing like pricking your fingertip!

Good luck,

maralee

****I just bought the Accu-Chek Compact a few days ago. I've

****not successfully done any location other than my fingers

****yet. I'm still trying to coordinate use of that extra

****deally you put on the end of the needle device to do my

****forearm. But I bought it as a back up to my Accu-Chek Advantage.
