Poll of the Day > the data cable for my glucose monitor broke, so i looked for a replacement

(+) Yeah! (+)

so

why?

why is it more than double the price of the device itself?

I have no idea what glucose monitor you are using, but my mom and my ex have an insulin pump and the pumps are blutooth and the tester is blutooth and usb. The cheap glucose tester used a regular micro usb.

just a normal freestyle lite



i don't need an insulin pump, nor do i really need some stupid fancy machine with bluetooth and touchscreens that can plug into my phone or uploads to the cloud

i might as well get one, though, since they're cheaper than this fucking wire, even.

i used to have one that was a usb stick, but it stated fucking up and reading lower than what i was, which is very dangerous.

and then switching machines is also a pain in the booty, cuz you gotta tell your pharmacist, and they gotta talk to insurance about getting different test strips and lancets, and it's not worth it
