Diabetic Meters
 
I've just been informed by my prescription service provider that they will no longer carry the supplies I need for my current meter (FreeStyle Freedom Lite).
Instead they will offer three other devices with their respective supplies. I'm hoping the some of you with Type 2 will have personal knowledge and give me some advice. The three they will carry are:

Accu-Check (Aviva)

Bayer Breeze #2

Bayer Contour

Any thoughts or information you can provide will be very much appreciated.

Bayer Breeze 2 is small and easy to use on either fingers or arm. Been using it for a few years now and have had no problems. Seems to be accurate.

Just curious...who is your service provider?? I use the Freestyle Lite and haven't gotten that info.

JenAjd:

My in-network provider is Prescription Solutions which I believe is part of the United Health Care companies.
