[acb-diabetics] wanting an accessable glucose meter

[Mike Freeman]

Please bear in mind that the prodigy autocode is not fully accessible.  When
you test, you hear the reading - once. To review readings from memory ot ro
set up the meter (time and date, mg/dl versus mol/l, etc.), you will require
the assistance of a sighted person. The only two fully-accessible meters
available here in the U.S. are the Prodigy Voice and the BioSense Solo V2.
Each of these has advantages and drawbacks.

That would be a good price! I looked on Amazon.com at the Prodogy Autocode
Talking meter + strips for $39.13. Plus I can get the refil strps at Maxi
Aids for $16.99 but I don't think Maxi Aids has control solution for the
meter.

Hello,

Not right off the top of my head and I believe shipping is under 10 dollars.
