I have a doubt that does not let me sleep, I suppose that some of you will have already had it and I can answer me.
A while ago I asked my endocrine if it is possible to contract diseases such as AIDS Hepatitis etc through the punctures of the fingers to do the glucose tests.He told me not since the wounds of the fingers healing immediately.
Well, my question is, this week my nurse, because I have fired levels, I wantedHis to compare values. Why do I have to do the tests with the 2 before meals.
I am worried about this because I don't know who has used this glucometer before me, and I am afraid that the person who uses it can have an infective of something.
It is true that each medication is done with a new strip and with dissitious lancets, but perhaps because of my part, I am afraid that in the machine itself there have been remains of blood that can infect me something to me when I measure my glucose.

Hello star:
I think your doubt is very logical, both diseases are infected with blood and blood, you do well to ask.If you use your lancetas with the two glucometers arranged, the glycometer borrows hits a cleaning with gloves using alcohol.

I am also very apprehensive, but I do not reach that extreme, although when I go to the dentist you always go through my head ....You are quieter, put on a glove with your hand that you touch the glucometer.But you can't be so hypochondriac because then we couldn't touch anything ..:-/

Although the AIDS seems lies, it is very hardly compared to other viruses, contact with the air eliminates it completely in a matter of a few minutes.And you will say, and the drug addicts as it is infected so often?Because they share the syringe immediately. Anyway they have already given you the best advice, use your own lancetas and clean the interior.Be careful, you don't pass that you could spoil the device.;)
