Re: Glucose meters with voiceover
Hi Anthony, Do owy know what causes the temor in your left hand? This could make it very difficult for you to take your sugar with a regular meter. It is hard enough to get the blood on the strip. I pray that God will intervene, especially on your behalf, as well as mine. I am tired of paramedics coming and frightening my aides, and going to the ER with IVS. My veins are very tiny and deep. I am a very hard stick. I also do not like being admitted and not allowed out of bed with an alarm going off if I should get up. I also do not like needing 24 hofr caregivers and not having any privacy or alone time. I need space that I cannot get. I always have to have someone at my side watching me. I will be praying for you. If I had this device, I would not need 24 hour care. Jan -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

Re: Glucose meters with voiceover
The company would not even consider billing my insurance because I am not iniulin dependent. It was both together. Perhaps the company knew that my insurance would not pick up the cost because of nondependency on insulin. They were most likely familiar with how insurance works. That is my guess. They did not say that my insurance would not pay, they just said the reason they would not provide. But my insurance would most likely say the same thing. I am going to speak to my endocrinobogist. He faught for my medicine to take with meals to absorb carbs so that they would not turn to sugar. The low sugar was caused by weight loss surgery. If the sugar gets too high, the body makes too much insulin, and sugar dumping happens. The sugar dives dangerously low. I have liquid glucose if I have a reaction.

RE: Glucose meters with voiceover
Dear pegkane52 & List: So, you also have difficulty getting the blood drop on the test strip! I have so much trouble my Doctor approved me for the Libra Free style Continuous Glucose Monitoring Device I am Insulin Dependent. Works OK but I am having to wait a while for an appointment to get the sensor attached to my upper arm. Seems NY Doctor's office is particularly busy lately. Come to think of it, I have not been asked to consent to a Flu Shot at Dialysis, they usually do the shots early to cover early Flu. I am one of the few blinks who use a Mobility Cane and a wheelchair. Guess I would need to sign up for Blue Cross for visitors to the U. S. if I want to visit friends there. No idea what U. S. dialysis centers charge visitors. Brian K.

Re: Glucose meters with voiceover
Hi, I know I do you know when I contacted Medicare, they did tell me that you had to test more than once a day, and I only test once a day, and I am also not on insulin. Take here.

Re: Glucose meters with voiceover
The Glucose monitor your looking for is the DexCom G5 or G6 system. The G6 connects to your iPhone via bluetooth and sends blood sugar readings to a dedicated application on your iPhone every 5 minutes. This app will also send out alerts when your blood sugar is to low/high, raising/dropping to quickly. I would be happy to answer anymore questions you may have on it.

Re: Glucose meters with voiceover
The other CGM meter is the Dexcom 6. I did know a totally blind man who had the Dexcom 5 and it was accessible with the iPhone.
