The
system gives you the ability to obtain a blood sample for
testing your glucose level from different areas of your body. The figure
shown above displays the areas where you can test using your
Blood Glucose Monitoring System. You may test your blood glucose
from your Forearm, Upper arm, Palm, Fingertips, Thigh, as well as Calf.
Avoid moles, veins, bones and tendons.
Important
: We recommend that you test on your fingertip if you
are testing for hypoglycemia (low blood glucose) or if you
have a history of reoccurring hypoglycemia.
