OneTouch Verio Blood Glucose Flex System {Meter Only}

I was hesitant to use at first. But easy after a couple times. Makes you more cognizant of blood sugar level, mine runs low.

Great job

it arrived as advertised

Very pleased.

Hi everyone I wanted to let you all know that I have had this product since the end of September we are now at the beginning of December and I wanted to warn everyone that the meter seems to malfunction shortly after purchasing. Just last week I thought my sugar level was at 200 but I felt fine. When I got home I tested again on my husband's meter which I bought for him was a RELI meter. I only tested at 113 which was almost 80 points higher than what it really was. I waited about 15 minutes and did the same process again testing both on my meter and my husband's meter. Again I got the same readings. He tested as well and got the same results. So please be careful in addition I kept getting error two messages. I just wanted to let the diabetic community know that this meter may have issues you need to be aware of. I'm afraid the only reason why I bought this type of meter was because my insurance would cover the strips at 100% but I had to use this particular meter. So if you do purchase this meter make sure you purchase it from someone who offers a warranty program on it because you will have to replace it in a couple months. Thank you.

Great meter, and the strips actually cheaper than 'old ones.' However, when buying on Amazon, be sure to read the full description of the seller option for the product (see the link 'other sellers' for options). There is a 'meter only' and then a 'meter kit' -- the kit has case, meter, and 10 pack of starter strips. Basic kit does not include the delica blood poker for finger (I already had two). Other caveat, mine arrived with near dead battery, even though new item. So, you may want to make sure you have some Panasonic CR2032 batteries on hand (it uses just one vs the old model that used two). You can get one free via prescription and coupon from LifeScan website, but $15 to buy yourself should not break the bank. Also, the USB port is for computer connection, not for charging -- which I stupidly thought until I RTFM (read the friendly manual). No USB cable included (or charger, obviously), but uses the same mini-connector as a lot of Amazon stuff and black & decker cordless screwdriver, etc. Would recommend to get with the modern system, better test strips, etc.

The monitor works very well it’s affordable however they said it will be here on one day and it came a week later 🙁

When Leukimia basically zeroed out my blood cell counts, I discovered my previously reliable glucose meter kept giving wildly variable results. I thought it had gone bad, and bought a different highly rated one only to have the same results. I went to the NIH papers regarding this issue and found that gor people with low hemocrit numbers in their blood won’t get good readings on most glucose meters. There were some meters that worked though because they used two different processes to measure glucose. I chose the one they tested with the most accurate results and Bought that one. My old meter when it worked would give consecutive readings within +/- 5% which was ok. This meter gives me identical consecutive readings living up to the +/- 1% the researchers found. Without this meter, I wouldn’t be able to get glucose readings at all. I’d been in a panic before it came. It was a life saver for me.
