"My ERROR 5 shows up when I am not paying attention. I must wait for the meter to tell me to apply my sample before touching blood to strip to prevent ERROR 5. Colorado, are you using the sides of your finger tips? Get about as much blood as a circle…"

"I've had the MM CGM about two weeks and in reading the blogs I never used the IV3000. I use "Hypaflex" 4" tape and haven't had any problems. Hypafles is the same tape that is used for our quick-sets and sensors. There are…"

"Hi all, I decided to try the One Touch Ultra 2 meter that I received for free. I keep giving it a chance. The Error 5 happens almost every time I use this meter. I was thinking this is why they were giving the meters away for free. It usually takes…"

"Dear Sarah, glad I am not the only one. I would go back to the other meter, but my insurance only pays for one touch. I too have terrible calouses! My poor finger tips have become my biggest bitch about being a diabetic. As far as your pump…"

One Touch Ultra Error 5

I am fed up with wasted strips for error 5 errors. I have been using One Touch meters for most of the 28 years I have had diabetes. I had stopped for a few years when I switched to BD because it uplinked with my pump. I switched back to the Ultra when they teamed with Minimed. The damn things seem so fussy. If you accidently touch your finger, or have too little or too much blood. Anyone else have these problems?See More
