Self Check 4ct

I am frequently testing my A1C since I have a DOT physical renewal coming up. I'm a type 2 with absolutely horrid blood sugars. But in recent times I overcame my food addiction and learned to take better control of my blood sugars. Thankfully 3 out of the 4 tests worked and represent the efforts of my diet change. The 1st test failed. After reading some advice to shake the unit itself a little bit after injecting the blood sample. I haven't had any issues ! Awesome test. Since an A1C costs around $45 where I live.

so far so good. I purchased a kit last august 2024. this kit had 4 test modules and one meter. it was close enough for me to know how well i am doing or not before i go in to the dr office. i found that its only off by maybe 0.1+/-. and those odds are good enough for me. its super easy to use, takes about 5mins on the timer and its done. keep track of your number and there you have it. once you get past the panic of worrying if your doing it right or not, they get easier to do once you have relaxed, lol. i like this kit so much, while I had one module left, but i ordered another kit a couple of weeks ago and it was going to take a few weeks to get it, for some reason this one wasnt a prime delivery, so I ordered ahead of time so i had it when i wanted to checkup on things. its nice to know at home if i am not doing well with my numbers at least 30days before my dr appointments so that i can put myself in a time out to bring it all back in line.

I've been using this for almost two years and the accuracy is spot on. I happened to test myself right before a doctor's visit, told him my results and he was skeptical. I told him to test me right there. The results were within .1 of each other. I told him as much as I like him as my doctor I can use the payment for one doctor's visit, buy this and monitor myself for a year.

The instructional video on their website is lacking information. I can go on in details, but I won't. Let them figure it out. This test needs to be done methodically. Regret buying it. Though I had sufficient blood as instructed it didn't run the test. Another time, it didn't run. One time the code I got qc7 means I left the insert tester in more than 2 minutes which I did not. Another error I got was qc50 which was not enough sample which I know for sure I collected enough blood. exactly as instructed per video. Out of the 4 tests only one success. I don't recommend it. there was no one page instruction in the box (in the video they said there was). It's a great idea, but the errors I got were not my fault. Also, the deviation error is high, in my opinion.

I’ve wasted two tests so far. The prick mechanism doesn’t go deep enough for enough blood so my first test results were error code not enough blood. Second time error code was temperature problem even though the room temperature was 70. I don’t get it. I’m going to pause for now and then try a third time. This is a waste of money.Update: The third test worked flawlessly. Just make sure you have enough blood. Giving it 4 stars now. I still think it’s a bit expensive for 4 tests and two didn’t work.

Once learned, this test is quite easy to administer. I did have a little problem, but their customer service was so helpful that the problem was solved on. On researching the item I found that this test is within 10% accuracy of a regular test given by professional facilities.

It did take a test to figure it out, but I have had no trouble in 5 yrs. The readings are pretty much the same as what quest comes up with. If you monitor your glucose closely then this should be part of your equipment so you can test every 60-90 days and not be caught off guard.

I had not read the full description of the product regarding dating. The seller worked with me and resolved the issue. I have always found this A1C product to be extremely accurate within 1/10 of the drawn blood format at my doctor.
