I was informed that the Count-A-Dose is no longer available.  If this is true, 
what device, if any, is being used in its place for a person with NLP?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

It is my understanding that even though there are alternate site testing 
devices available, that these readings are not always as accurate as those 
obtained through a finger stick.  Is that correct?

Hello:
Here is an excerpt from a description of the Prodigy Voice talking blood 
glucose monitor which is available from many sources on the web (including maxi 
aids and similar catalogues) and can be found by using google or a similar 
search engine.  "The Prodigy Voice Glucometer allows you the option to test 
from your palms, forearm, upper arm, thighs and calfs"

Is there a talking glucometer that allows for using blood from a site other 
than a finger stick - such as an arm?  A consumer told me he had heard of such 
a device, but I do not know of one.
Thanks,
Eileen Brennan
