got a meter today, have to wait and find out how much the strips and lancets are for it though, because if they're too much i'm going to look into getting a different meter with cheaper stuff!

i'm also taking kidney disease meds (as preventative now) and my dr. wants me to keep my eye exams up to date because of the whole getting glaucoma and cataracts

well, thats about it! =]

*Happy Sticking* lol thats what the nurse told me today as i left with my meter
So sorry, to hear this, my mom and my aunt have diabetes too
