Alright I did one of those at home A1c by Bayer I am sorry but those have to be way off. (at least in my case) Last month at my endo my A1c was 6.2 since then my numbers have stayed around that. I took one of those at home A1c and it said 8.1. I was really wanting to see something like 5.9 but I know My numbers aren't high enough to have A1c of 8.1. Not even close. Has anybody else have this problem with the at home A1c.KatySee More
jamen1 replied to jamen1's discussion 'infusion set'"I looked luer connector up to find out what it means and this is what i read but still don't understand. This is what it said. "Other pumps have non-standard or proprietary infusion sets, which require you to purchase the company brand.…"
"I think Paradigm sets are the newer ones, and only work for MM."
Zoe replied to jamen1's discussion 'infusion set'"I think they can if they have a luer connector. Somebody else can explain what that is. It's the way the set connects that needs to be the same."

jamen1 posted a discussionAdvocate meter
I use the Advocate Meter. It is the cheapest test strips i can find. I don't have insurance. Sometimes i found they are pretty accurate compared to one touch but that is not always the case. I wonder if it is reading lower then i really am. Another thing i notice is it can test twice and be 50 points off (sometimes). Does anybody use this meter and what is your opinion on it. Also is there another accurate meter that test strips are cheap.
jamen1 replied to Robyn's discussion 'How many Test Strips do you use in 1 month? Just Curious.'"300"
jamen1 replied to Robyn's discussion 'In your Dreams are you Diabetic?'"yes, i dreamed one time i was kidnapped and started freaking out because i didn't have my insulin. I have dream of checking my blood and waking up relizing i was really low. I am sure we dream of it more then we think. It is so much apart of…"
