Alternate Location Testing

I have tried testing on my palm and arm with three different lancets:

Lifescan
Abbot
Accuchek Multiclix

The only place I have been able to draw enough blood to test is my thigh, and the thigh is not really a great place to test because of pants etc. I was able to get a LITTLE blood to come out of my arm or palm by holding the lancet device in place with some pressure, for like 30 seconds. But not even enough to test. And before you ask, I tried the deepest lancet setting and I was using the clear cap, for each lancet device.

Am I just destined to always use my fingers? Are there some of us who can’t use the alternate locations?
