Hi,
How often do you change the lancets in your lancing device?
When i saw my DSN for a check yesterday she said i should change them after each use.
I've sometimes left the changing of my lancets until my fingers hurt but i'm going to TRY & get into the habit of changing them each day or certainly every other day....we'll see

Hi, I've always used a new lancet for each blood test, since 1978.

I've been advised that it should be changed after every test. Initially I found it easier to only change it every day or two but have changed since doing the DAFNE Course.
