Thank you. My 82-year-old mom's blood sugar went sky high with her chemo treatments and the doctor ordered this device for her. The written directions were overwhelming, but your video was simple and clear. We appreciated the clear directions!!!

Great tutorial. Very thorough and explanatory. While you did mention that you start at a number 4 on the lancet device and that you can adjust the depth of the puncture, it wasn't stated that the higher the number the deeper the puncture. No big deal. Just throwing that out there in case anyone needs that detail.

Good call! Thanks!
That was just what I needed to know. I got as far as getting the 25. I think I can test my blood sugar now. Thanks.
Thank you! The direction sheet of paper folds out into what seems like 50 pieces it’s huge and very overwhelming I’m so glad I found your video.

Watched this video not because i'm about to use this device but just for awareness on what is it like using the lancets & test strips. Just getting idea about these. Working on a healthcare account customer service representative. Member/Patients are asking for us to mail order their prescriptions such this popular one touch test kit. Most of them having issues with the compatibility of the monitor from the strips. And i'm like "what?!" Now i get it. Now i know how i will assist them everytime they will call and ask for help. Thank you! :)
Thank you for the video. So helpful ❤and clearly ❤
Usually, I use the ihealth version but my primary doctor ordered the onetouch accessories. Didn't know it until my granddaughter brought my prescriptions to me. Never used it before and thought I wouldn't be able to check my blood sugar until whenever I was able to get the ihealth. But thanx to your video I was able to use the onetouch ultra. Thank you sir👍👍👌👌❤❤❤

Omg, thanks loads, I've been switched from my accu-chek meter system (which i used and loved for over 10 years by my pcp), to this new system that came with a mini manual. Don't have that kind of time or patience. Mostly I can just look at something and put it together, other times I need a visual like this. Simple, quick and to the point. Thanks again. Great job!👍

Is there anyway the meter can stay on or does it stay off until you put test strip in
What do we do with Lancets once cap is placed back on?
What does the numbers mean? I put it on 4 but not sure what that means. Thank you
I am having a hard time reading the meter. Is there a way to lighten up the display?
Thank you so much. I just got my meter and need to know how to use it. 😢
Hello sir I have the same machine , I did exactly the same as you showed in the video, but I do not see the code 25 on the device screen, what do I do ? I changed the batteries. Please can you help me with this?
If you put a test strip in and the device does not turn on does that mean they aren’t the right test strips?
Is it possible my machine can be messed up I'm doing it exactly as u say and it keep telling me error each and Evey time
Great video but I’d also like to be able to reset the data . How do you clear out all the previous readings so u create a new history? Ty

It may be time to replace the battery.
My meter won’t turn on when I insert the test strip. 😢
So my first test went swimmingly however when I try to do a 2nd test it doesn’t register the test strip…
I did all the steps, just like you did... my result was 139. the problem now is my secound trying, i insert the strips just like I did the first time but nothing come out like asking me to put the blood, it dosent say anything. doy you know why? thank you. and sorry for my inglish my language is spanish.
How do you get the monitor back to beginning to test again? Main menu comes up….the number 25 would come up and it would show a test stripe is ready. I can’t get to the 25 again.

Inserting a test strip should bring up the testing screen.
Would you recommend this or the Contour Next Gen? I am newly diagnosed and am torn between these two.

They are both great meters. I think you'd be happy with either one. If you happen to have insurance you may want to check and see if they have a preferred brand of test strips, that may help you decide.

@@learnbloodsugartesting Insurance covers any of the OneTouch ones. Honestly, I think the Flex looks to have more feature features than the Ultra. I wonder why the latter retail price is higher?
Mine never came with the case. Any idea why? It's just in a box. Where am I supposed to put it when we go out ?

When the code is displayed on the screen you can use the up and down arrow buttons to change it.
Mine said "error 2, metor or strip problem, retest with new strip"
I've been using the one touch ultra two for years. my code on the machine has always said, "code 25." yesterday, i open a new container of strips. The container says Code 25 on it, but when I insert the test strip, the machine says Code 28. I'm not sure what's going on. The strips will test my bsl, but, I'm wondering if it's accurate? Anyone know what the deal is? The are one touch 2 ultra strips.

Why is the Ultra 2 more expensive than the Verio Reflect? The Ultra seems much more minimal and has less features.

This meter will display Low Glucose warning when it measures an extremely low blood sugar (less than 20mg/dL).
What happens if the meter is reading code 26 but my strip container showed 25

You are going waaay too fast for a first time user. Plus I can't hear you. The volume is all the way up & you are barely audible. The rest of my videos the audio is fine so I don't know what to say.

The device is crap. Even when you turn on the back lit display, it makes no different. Old people will have a problem reading this device.
