Customer Reviews of Home Diagnostics Sidekick Blood Glucose Testing System
Customer Review: A reasonably priced glucometer
Summary: 5 Stars
I've used these for the past nine months or so. Wal-mart sells them for around [...] or less each, which includes 50 test strips. The name brands get twice as much money for the strips alone and you're stuck with a big glucometer. I wanted to test more often than my insurer would pay for, which is why I started using these.
The amount of blood required seems to be half what my One Touch wanted. The slightest prick usually draws enough blood. I haven't taken it to the doctor's to compare readings, but the results usually match how I feel and where I think I should be based on exercise and carb intake. If I skip lunch, the results from the Sidekick start to show I'm getting hypoglycemic just as I begin to feel it.
The Sidekick does not include a "lance", so I use the one that came with another glucometer. The Sidekick is very small, looks like a longer version of an old 35mm film cartridge. The lit flips up to give access to the strips, which are inside. It would be perfect if they could attach a lance.
The Sidekick "remembers" all 50 tests, so you don't have to write them down all at once. You push a button on the side of the lid and the readings show on top with the most recent one first.
You don't have to set it as you do for the One Touch. There's a tiny vial of test liquid and you use your first strip to verify the glucometer is working properly.
