Ascensia Contour Blood Glucose Meter By allie63078 on Sep 27, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I recently got the Asencia Contour Blood Glucose Meter to keep track of my glucose levels since I have hypoglycemia. I didn't want anything very fancy as I only have to check my levels periodically. I wanted something small and easy to use and read. So far I have been nothing but impressed.

The package for this product comes with the meter, a bottle to hold the test strips, 2 different attachments for the meter (one for pricking your finger & one for pricking an alternate test site). It also has some lancets, a bottle of control fluid and a small case to hold everything.

Testing is very simple and I love that this kit gives you multiple places to test your glucose levels. I for one hate having my finger pricked so it's nice that I can do the test on my forearm or the palm of my hand. The amount of blood needed is very small and obtaining the blood sample is very easy.
