Hong Kong scientists have invented a device to help diabetics measure their blood sugar painlessly for the first time - without pricking their fingers.

:p
I'm surprised, I thought this invention was rolled out a couple of year ago.....? Anyway its good news for all those millions of people who have to stick themselves several times a day......also for the nurses. :houra:
yes I think the stick is not a bad deal but its capitalizem we have to deal with
Well, lemme tell ya, As a Type 1 Diabetic this is VERY exciting... if pricking our own fingers isn't enough, Our fingers are USED to being pricked so it doesn't take much and the hospital prickers... well they hurt BAD and leave bruises... :houra:
