Do you have a $ figure for "pretty spendy"? I really want to sort out the bouts of fatigue though, so in that sense I'm not that price sensitive.
- alexee 10y agoYou can order Free Style Libre (online), starter package for $200 or so (check their website). They probably don't ship to the US, as they're not approved there, so you'd have to use some mail forwarder.
- delhanty 10y agoThank you! That might work for me - I could get it shipped to Japan or the UK.
- terminalcommand 10y agoSpeaking as a T1D for nearly 10 years, instead of getting a glucometer, go to a lab and check your Hba1c levels. The test is really cheap and is an indication of your glucose levels in the last 3 months. If that is over 7 mg/dl you're diabetic. I sincerely hope you don't have T1D. Good luck.
