Lilith---I now use an Accu-Chek-Advantage.I don't know which is
best,but I got this from the VA.They also give me the test strips.
They give me Accu-Chek Comfort Curve test strips.If bought,they
would be very expensive.I am supposed to check my blood four(4)
times daily.My civilian diabetic Dr.,has me take Lantus insulin.For
some reason,the VA,hasn't approved that yet.My wife is still working,so I get it,with a co-pay,at my local pharmacy.We are
trying to get it approved before she retires.For some reason,the
VA,will not approve Lantus unless you have been hospitalised
because of suger readings.I thought that you took insulin,so that
wouldn't happen.As usual,the Govt., makes NO sense in anything
that they do. Irish
P.S.I've always believed that the squeaky hinge,gets the oil!I'll
just keep pestering them.The way I look at it,I gave them four
active years of my life.It's the least that they can do!
