Glen replied to Nicole Olie's discussion 'Any success uploading the Verio IQ meter?'
"Like I said it is a bit more work and just a work-around to the situation but if it works for you to get the reports you want then glad I could help. I am sure we are not the only ones still using the VerioIQ meters and the recall was…"

"Another option (although a little more button pushing) is for EVERY BSL you test is to enter that into the pump. You can use the pump to simply record your BSL even if you are not going to deliver a bolus. It is an extra step, testing on the meter…"

"The power cord used to recharge the VerioIQ actually doubles as a USB data cable so no need to purchase seperately, unless packaged differently in the US. As Alicia said the OneTouch software will do what you want, just not integrated with your pump…"

Glen replied to Siri's discussion 'How is "Bolus Wizard" and general interface on the Animas Vibe with integrated CGM?' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users

Glen replied to artwoman's discussion 'To those lucky ones who already have the Vibe' in the group Animas Insulin Pump Users
"Here in Australia the Vibe only comes with the one clip that holds it vertically on a belt, no holster. I am happy for the time being with the clip so haven't looked around for anything else."

Glen replied to Glen's discussion 'Medtronic 'link' meters' in the group Minimed Paradigm Insulin Pump Users
"If the pumps were different in some way then that is when they use the different names/model numbers (ie your Revel as opposed to our Veo) but I believe my Paradigm 722 is the same as your Paradigm 722....I may be wrong and am sure Medtronic have…"

Glen,
I contacted telcare about the AVG block and it seems they have already taken care of it! I don't get the warning myself since I emailed the company support and was contacted right away so I hope you will try back just to check it out. I am sorry but please know I would never post anything or any website I found as a threat. I find the fact that they addressed it so quickly a plus. Yes, the meter is expensive without insurance coverage and I have no idea about the strips! I saw it used at my Dr.'s office but since they could not give them away to patients they would only say "contact a rep" I just posted for the tech geeks who NEED to have the latest gadgets!
