I’ve had type 1 diabetes for ~11 years (since I was 13). Recently, I’ve found that some glucometers store blood sugars in memory (in my case, OneTouch Ultra 2). The device has a small, rounded input that looks like the one found on any given iPod. Anyway, how can I read the data stored in the glucometers memory? Is the protocol universal? I only ask because whenever I go to the Endocrinologist, the Nurse takes my glucometer and uploads my blood sugars into a database that generates graphs and etc. Should I ask my Endocrinologist? Please, help me! I want to improve the health care management for all type 1 diabetics!
Thanks.
