Thank you. My 82-year-old mom's blood sugar went sky high with her chemo treatments and the doctor ordered this device for her. The written directions were overwhelming, but your video was simple and clear. We appreciated the clear directions!!!
😊😊😊
Glad I could help.
Thank you so much for this! The directions that came with this on that giant paper was very overwhelming and this video was so simple and easy to follow so that I could help my mom. Thank you again! 😊😊😊
Glad it was helpful!
Thank You so much. You are an ANGEL 😇 for so many of us. I am a 71 year woman. This Test program is All New and Scary. THANK YOU with All my Heart 🙋♀️🙂
You are so welcome
I just got diagnosed with diabetes. I tried to read the enclosed instructions. No luck. I’m glad I remembered to try CZcams. Your video was so helpful. Thank you very much
Great tutorial. Very thorough and explanatory. While you did mention that you start at a number 4 on the lancet device and that you can adjust the depth of the puncture, it wasn't stated that the higher the number the deeper the puncture. No big deal. Just throwing that out there in case anyone needs that detail.
Good call! Thanks!
Thank you! The direction sheet of paper folds out into what seems like 50 pieces it’s huge and very overwhelming I’m so glad I found your video.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much. I’m a pharmacy technician and saved this to my phone for my clients who are receiving this kit for the first time as this is the kit most commonly prescribed here. Thank you!!!
You're very welcome!
That was just what I needed to know.
I got as far as getting the 25.
I think I can test my blood sugar now.
Thanks.
Perfect instructional video for a tester newbie. Not tons of blah-blah. Great! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you I was just diagnosed 7-11 and I am still waiting for my tester and all to arrive.
Thanks for the video! I’m like so many others, I just got diagnosed and this was my first self test. Your walk through made my experience pleasant. Thanks again!
You are welcome!
Thank you for this video! Recently got diagnosed with gestational diabetes and my OB wrote out one of these so I could keep up with my sugar.
The instructions that came with it are very overwhelming and hard for me to understand. So thank you for this quick simple tutorial.
Glad you found it helpful.
Very helpful video! I am having gestational diabetes and your video helped me a lot. Thank you
Glad I could help you!
Thank you! If I read important instructions while anxious, it just makes me more anxious
°~°
I had an accu-chek and it was better built. This feels so flimsy. Thanks for your video. It helped so much!
Thanks. I finally realized that I needed lancets to make the gizmo work. Ordered from Amazon. Thank you for clarity.
Wow
Thanks. First time ever using this and the pharmacist didn’t even explain it this well! God bless you! Just checked mine!
Great, glad I was able to help.
Thank you for this video, it’s very helpful🙏🙏🙏 I tried but couldn’t get enough blood. Is there an easy way to get blood?
Thank you. I have to start testing and this is the kit I was given. I was shown how to use it but this is a great reference for a beginner.
You are welcome, I am glad you found the video useful.
Usually, I use the ihealth version but my primary doctor ordered the onetouch accessories. Didn't know it until my granddaughter brought my prescriptions to me. Never used it before and thought I wouldn't be able to check my blood sugar until whenever I was able to get the ihealth. But thanx to your video I was able to use the onetouch ultra. Thank you sir👍👍👌👌❤❤❤
You are welcome, I'm glad you found the video useful..
Watched this video not because i'm about to use this device but just for awareness on what is it like using the lancets & test strips. Just getting idea about these. Working on a healthcare account customer service representative. Member/Patients are asking for us to mail order their prescriptions such this popular one touch test kit. Most of them having issues with the compatibility of the monitor from the strips. And i'm like "what?!" Now i get it. Now i know how i will assist them everytime they will call and ask for help. Thank you! :)
Thanks for taking the time and make this video. Brief and right to the point. Helped me tremendously. Thank you again.
You're very welcome!
Thank you for literally shedding blood to make this video tutorial 🙏🏼
The instructions that came with the product seemed overtly complicated. Perhaps for legal reasons.
Glad I could help.
thank you so much for this. I'm new to diabetics and this was incredibly helpful. especially with changing the needle
Thank you. Your video was very clear and helpful. Now I can help my dad learn how to use his meter.
Glad it helped, thanks for watching.
Thank you. This video was very helpful and easy to understand.
My doctor showed me and we took a glucose reading. However, now that I’m trying it on my own at home, my results keep coming back with, “use a new test strip and try again”. What would be the reason for this? It’s happened all 3 times I’ve tried using it at home.
Thank You for this Video. They did not give me test strips. have to go back to CVS 😭😭😭😭
I have the same meter, though mine did not come with a case. But my question is, which number gets more of the droplet? I have it on 5 currently, and it is sufficient so far. I wasn't sure if it was a big enough droplet for an accurate reading.
Omg, thanks loads, I've been switched from my accu-chek meter system (which i used and loved for over 10 years by my pcp), to this new system that came with a mini manual. Don't have that kind of time or patience. Mostly I can just look at something and put it together, other times I need a visual like this. Simple, quick and to the point. Thanks again. Great job!👍
Glad it helped
Thank you for the video. I start my testing journy today.
Thanks so much I was struggling with the un user friendly instruction pamphlet
You're welcome!
Thanks for the great video. So helpful. The instructions were very overwhelming. Your video helped me out immensely. Thanks again and ATB Mike
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much for this video, I didn’t have a clue about what I’m doing.
Glad I could help!
Thank you very much for this video Help me a lot.
You are welcome.
Hi, I have been getiing results in singel digits such as 4.6 / 5.9 / 4.1 etc and I was told to multiply it by 18 to get the final result. it it correct or how can I fix or configure it? Thanks
Thank you so much for this demonstration. What was I so afraid of LOL. I appreciate this.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for all this helpful information 👍 what number did you use on the lancing device? First time user and don’t want to overdo anything 🙏
First use today. Thanks for the clear instruction, it was immensely helpful.
Glad it helped!
If you put a test strip in and the device does not turn on does that mean they aren’t the right test strips?
Thank you, i needed this ❤
Great video but I’d also like to be able to reset the data . How do you clear out all the previous readings so u create a new history? Ty
The meter does not allow you to delete the previous readings.
Thank you for the video. So helpful ❤and clearly ❤
I thank you very much for the video I would like to know how I can set up the Average then to Hocked it in the computer please to see the reading when they are up or down I don' know how to express .... it is like line to show within month if my sugar is up or down .... Tanks
Do you have to set up new every time I use . Waiting for code 25 takes for ever . I hope I'm not doing anything wrong ?
I need some help on a question? I just did my test and I needed to know what number is average?
Thank you so much. I just got my meter and need to know how to use it. 😢
I did great after watching your video!! However…. I am having an issue with doing my second meter reading. An error came up. Do you know who can help me with this?
What happened? Did you get an error code?
Absolutely professional!
Thanks this was very helpful for my first testing
Great to hear!
What does the numbers mean? I put it on 4 but not sure what that means. Thank you
Hello sir I have the same machine , I did exactly the same as you showed in the video, but I do not see the code 25 on the device screen, what do I do ? I changed the batteries. Please can you help me with this?
Thank you so much ❤
Would you recommend this or the Contour Next Gen? I am newly diagnosed and am torn between these two.
They are both great meters. I think you'd be happy with either one. If you happen to have insurance you may want to check and see if they have a preferred brand of test strips, that may help you decide.
@@learnbloodsugartesting
Insurance covers any of the OneTouch ones. Honestly, I think the Flex looks to have more feature features than the Ultra. I wonder why the latter retail price is higher?
Is there anyway the meter can stay on or does it stay off until you put test strip in
My strips are kinda fork shaped. Which end do I put into the monitor?
I do everything you say to do but when I draw the blood and put the blood on it when it shows the drip but it doesn't read it
I am having a hard time reading the meter. Is there a way to lighten up the display?
Trying to help my mother out with but having problems i put the test strip and nothing happen from the off position
It may be time to replace the battery.
I have the same reader but the 25 will not shoe on the screen. What am I doing wrong?
Is it possible my machine can be messed up I'm doing it exactly as u say and it keep telling me error each and Evey time
What happens if when I insert the strip into the device, it does not turn on?
Thank you!
I did all the steps, just like you did... my result was 139. the problem now is my secound trying, i insert the strips just like I did the first time but nothing come out like asking me to put the blood, it dosent say anything. doy you know why? thank you. and sorry for my inglish my language is spanish.
Mine never came with the case. Any idea why? It's just in a box. Where am I supposed to put it when we go out ?
Interesting, they must sell different kits.
Thank you so much
10/3/24 wonderful video
Thanks was very helpful!
Glad it helped!
How do you get the monitor back to beginning to test again? Main menu comes up….the number 25 would come up and it would show a test stripe is ready. I can’t get to the 25 again.
Inserting a test strip should bring up the testing screen.
thanks for the video!!
does it keep track of your numbers?
Yes, it stores the previous readings in memory.
Hi! Mine will stay on the “apply blood” screen and doesn’t count down or read my results! What can I do?
I want to know haw i can erease all the lectures to start a new lista and how can i load the lectures and what decides it can be.
This meter does not allow you to delete previous readings.
What do we do with Lancets once cap is placed back on?
Thanks you , so much, i really appreciate ❤
You're welcome 😊
What about if the code on the strip doesn't match the code on the bottle
When the code is displayed on the screen you can use the up and down arrow buttons to change it.
My meter won’t turn on when I insert the test strip. 😢
Thank you 🥰
You’re welcome 😊
When I put the test strip in the machine the machine doesn’t turn on
Is the strip fully inserted into the meter?
So my first test went swimmingly however when I try to do a 2nd test it doesn’t register the test strip…
My strips don’t have a code ??? What does that mean
Thank you very much!! 🥰
You’re welcome 😊
Why is the Ultra 2 more expensive than the Verio Reflect? The Ultra seems much more minimal and has less features.
Thank you 👌
You're welcome!
Yo tengo ese mismo y desde que pongo el test strip no me muestra el codigo
I've been using the one touch ultra two for years. my code on the machine has always said, "code 25." yesterday, i open a new container of strips. The container says Code 25 on it, but when I insert the test strip, the machine says Code 28. I'm not sure what's going on. The strips will test my bsl, but, I'm wondering if it's accurate? Anyone know what the deal is? The are one touch 2 ultra strips.
When the code is displayed on the screen you can use the arrow buttons to adjust the number to match the bottle of test strips.,
If you got 9.4 is it a good thing
Here is a video explaining blood glucose readings. czcams.com/video/O7l3qg0Z4GE/video.html
How do guys understand the numbers on it do you devide it by the 25 please help me understand this I am the only one who knows how test my grandmas blood suger cause she is blind someone help me please
Mine said "error 2, metor or strip problem, retest with new strip"
My meter won’t turn on when I insert the test strip😏
What is the problem when it indicates "Lo" please share the solution
This meter will display Low Glucose warning when it measures an extremely low blood sugar (less than 20mg/dL).
Mine keeps reading error meter problem
Sounds like you may want to contact the manufacturer to determine if the meter is defective.
I got OneTouch Ultra 2 l take my blood it don’t work
When my mom inserts the strip, it doesn't turn on.
What happens if the meter is reading code 26 but my strip container showed 25
When the code is displayed on the screen uou can press the up arrow button one time to change from 25 to 25
Mine kept saying error 2/5
Mine isnt reading,im pretty pissed off about it
You are going waaay too fast for a first time user. Plus I can't hear you. The volume is all the way up & you are barely audible. The rest of my videos the audio is fine so I don't know what to say.
Thanks for your feedback, I will keep that in mind as I create future videos.
You're too slow, this video is perfect, play it again and again ... or read the paper instructions
The device is crap. Even when you turn on the back lit display, it makes no different. Old people will have a problem reading this device.
Thanks a lot❤
Thank you so much!!
You're welcome!
