Unfortunately, stocks of these meters will probably get wiped out as scores of non-diabetic HUKDers try to get a free meter to sell on eBay for a few easy quid.
Shameful, but always seems to be the case with these kinds of deals.

Why? What about people who are obese, have diabetes in their families, have other conditions predisposing them to diabetes or even those with impaired glucose tolerance (precursor to diabetes)?
These devices cost very little and, personally, I applaud anyone who wants to keep an eye on their BMs. It's all part of taking responsibility for one's health. Primary prevention is always better than treating a disease process that has already begun.
Obviously people cynically ordering several to resell are pretty low and should feel ashamed.

I dont really understand who this is useful for?
If you are diabetic you will be given a good meter free from the NHS, Like this, and free lancets and test strips to go with it for as long as you need them.
If you get this machine you will need to buy your own strips after the few that come with it run out.

I don't think all type 2 diabetics are routinely given metres.
Some may find this deal useful if they want to keep an eye on there blood sugar levels between routine blood tests.
If they find the machine useful then they could request the lancet and strips on prescription.

All meters are not the same and they don't suit all types of people so sometimes for diabetics to try a free meter that might be easier to use than their current one is really helpful. Heat added op good deal for those who need it.

Yes, I agree - for people who have genuine medical needs, rather than those trying to resell and make money.

All the evidence suggests that if you are Type 2 and test or don't test has no impact on your diabetes progression. People who do test may be prone to developing anxiety.:man:

Exercise and determination reduced sugar levels and effectively 'reverses' the need for meds. The only way to successfully monitor the success and stay off meds is to use as machine - as I do and I've been off meds for a year. Within a machine, how would I monitor my blood sugars?

if does not make too much difference as you know your own body but in order to keep your driving license you need to test everytime you get in to drive.it is one of the rules the dva has in order to keep driving, also your insurance company might want to know the results if you were to have an accident (not usually).if you have a hypo you need to declare that as well as getting a medical done every couple of years depending on past events and records being kept.also your diabetic nurse will want to see your records roughly every 6-12 months.

Heat.
Ive been a type 1 for almost 40 years, and have tried many blood glucose machines in that time, the first, being literally the size of a house brick.
Things have changed so much in this time space, whats available now in such small sizes is amazing.
T1 Diabetics can get (almost) any blood glucose monitor free of charge (that has been approved for the UK market), the market for selling blood glucose monitors here in the uk privately, is miniscule, for anyone claiming these and trying to sell on ebay, shame on you, for the sake of a few quid, you disgust me.
Those who actually NEED these may have to go without because of your greed, appauling behaviour imo.

Being a type 1 diabetic, this would be good as a spare, but you should only use 1 machine at a time

Order it, use the strips etc just to see how your sugar levels are and when they are high or low (try it before andafter eating sweet foods tis quite interesting what goes on in your body) then take out the batteries which are usually branded ones and chuck the meter!
OK screw the environment FREE BATTERIES and track marks on your arms like a smack head!

Heat. Fortunately I don't require one so won't be getting, Completely agree with the above comments that I hope this is one deal that is not abused, and the people who genuinely require one manage to get it.

Graham1979 you dont use these on an arm. you use them on a finger. And not everyone gets them from the doctor. They dont tell everyone about them. I got mine because I ASKED for one. And I got it from the NURSE, not the Doctor.

Boyf has Type 1 and was carrying around an old brick for ages, but has had the Accu Chek mobile for a year and a half thanks to HUKD. He thinks it's the best meter he's ever had, easy to use, carry and pretty accurate.
Not sure why this is Type 2 only, maybe the company manufacturing them see a gap in the market as Type 2 sufferers tend not to get free meters, etc, whereas Type 1 patients do. Maybe offering the free meters is a way of generating income for the strips, lancets, etc.
Ordered one as I have diabetes in the family. When I was at the GP last he flat refused to do a blood test for cholesterol/diabetes as they don't do this routinely until over 40 (i'm shy a couple of years) and unless one feels unwell.

Thanks. Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes just before the turn of the year. Still learning about it and although I am not on medication for it or been given a machine, I think this will be handy to keep an eye on things.

I can't speak for everyone but I can tell you I'm getting one as diabetes is common in my family (both type 1 and 2) so I'm getting this to keep an eye on my blood glucose levels so that if I am affected by diabetes later in life I will be able to notice it and deal with it quickly.

Are people also remembering to order the lances and strips in order to be able to use the machine?

They make money on the accessories, they dont care who orders them as long as they get used, the more machines on the market the more spirit health care make, as more lancets get purchased or given free by the NHS

I think one touch ultra mobile meter is best as it is all in one and less parts to carry.
my dads diabetic so ordered for him. Received an email asking for GP and address. Why do they need this? anyone else had this?

I got a different meter from hot deals once before... it was good. my father n law found it easy to use ( he has type 2 and dementia ) but his doctor said the test strips were to expensive so he could prescribe them!
i dont know if its worth trying this or not?
