I was testing my sugar today on my pinkie and I always change my poker setting to a 1 for my pinkie. My pointer, middle and ring fingers like it on the 2 and my thumbs choses a 3.
Does anyone else use different setting for each fingers?
If I dont use those settings of forget to change it I either have to poke again, or its super painful and bleeeeeeds forever…
Hmm. I never thought to do that, but it would make sense. I usually have to prick a lot of times on my ring, a few times on my pinkie, and only once on my middle finger (only fingers I use). But I would totally forget, and I’m a big believer in total and complete laziness, so I’m not sure I would – it’s sort of easier to just keep poking…and poking…and poking.
Thumbs and index fingers are 5 middle and ring are a 4 pinkies are a 3 and when I forget and use 9 OUCH!!!
These settings are using the one touch device that came with the meters. What have you been using???
I lean more to poking my left hand as well or I only use my thumb and pointer on the right, I have scars right through the middle of my middle, ring and pinkie on the right from carving a pumpkin in 2005 had to get 11 stitches. I’m gonna look for the picture of my stitches… its great…havent carved a pumpkin since 2005 either…
I usually poke all the fingers except the thumbs. But I get better results with the pinky. And I prefer poking fingers from the lesft hand since my right do so much. Would you believe Ive never change the setting? Its at constant 2.
