Re: iPhone glucose meter recommendation

2017-01-16 Thread Caitlyn Furness
Be careful with these meters.  Lots of them aren’t accessable themselves, and 
the ones I’ve tried only send the results of the test to your phone.  If there 
is an error, for example,you are stuck-the error messages don’t get sent to the 
phone.  Oh, and lots need a sighted person to set them up.

Because of all this, I am now using the prodigy voice meter and paying for the 
strips out of my own pocket because that meter isn’t available here in Canada.

I have also written to the people who make the qardio products asking them to 
please consider making a glucose meter that works with the i phone similar to 
their wonderful scale and blood pressure meter!

hah,

Re: iPhone glucose meter recommendation

2017-01-15 Thread Dan D.


A google with:

iphone glucose meter

will get a ton of responses.


They work by sending the result to the iphone/ipad where the app can voice 
and/or store the result.  Make sure the app is voice accessable.


One from the above google appears to be an apple product.  One factor is
the cost of strips.  Actual meters are often given away because they know
the real money is in the strips which can vary greatly in price.

Also check with your insurance company because they often will only 
support certain meters and strips.

RE: iPhone glucose meter recommendation

2017-01-14 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi John,
I've not actually tried this system myself as its bloody costly here in NZ, 
about 10K per year to have but 

 There is a system out there that is a continuous glucose monitoring system 
which is a sensor that is inserted in to the body somewhere and then 
continually monitors your blood glucose levels 

and through an app on your phone / device will tell you  all you need to  know 
about your test results etc.

I'm not sure if the app is accessible or the name of the system but it may be 
worth a look in to.

 I myself have a Care Sens N Voice system which is a little Blood Glucose 
Monitor that can connect to your computer via a USB data cable,
A propriatory cable USB a male on one end and a 2.5mm  head phone jack type 
plug on the other for plugging into the back of the sensor 
Then using a software package you can upload data to your computer and show it 
as it is or export in to excel etc.

 Hope this helps.

I know nothing about this kind of thing, but I recently read the following 
article. It talks about a new iPhone-connected monitor, able to take a reading 
in five seconds and sync the data back to the Health app. There are other 
features as well. I have no idea of the accessibility or utility, but I thought 
I'd mention it.

Re: iPhone glucose meter recommendation

2017-01-14 Thread Eileen Scrivani
Hi John,

I haven’t heard of any glucose meter that is accessible with the IPhone. If you 
find one I wouldn’t mind knowing.  In the meantime, the 2 most popular meters 
for diabetics who are blind are either the “Solus V2” by Bio-reference or the 
Prodigy Meter. A lot of companies push a cheaper Meter that does not have as 
much functionality for a blind diabetic called the Embrace. The embrace does 
not read aloud the results off that meter’s memory.

Good luck.

Eileen

Subject: iPhone glucose meter recommendation

Greetings all. I hope there's someone out there with diabetes with experience 
with a glucose meter that works well with your iPhone and voiceover. If anybody 
can make a recommendation or share any thoughts I would appreciate it. I don't 
want to just be able to port the information for logging but I'd like something 
that either has good speech itself, or relies on the iPhone.

Thank you
