^ They are working on it, but for now get yourself a meter that allows you to test on various parts of your arms and legs, they don't hurt for the most part..
They are working on a watch type monitor that checks your blood through your sweat and one that does a reading from your eye. I guess we will have to wait, for now
it's the old fashioned way.
The site below will give you more information on various meters. Good luck, I hope this helps.

No. Not accurately.
There are some some devices out there that strap to the wrist or fingers that claim to give approximations of blood sugar levels, but the reading is much too inaccurate to ensure good blood sugar control.
However, there are blood glucose meters that will let you sample blood from sticking other body locations (such as arms). It is said not to hurt as much, requiring a very small sample to read blood sugar.

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.
Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

They make continuous glucose monitors now that are a subcutaneous devise that measure glucose levels but even these require calibrations with finger sticks.

Stick the outside of your upper arm near your shoulder.. It doesn't hurt. Your arm has less nerve endings.

No, sticking a finger is no big deal, make sure your lanclet is shap and clean.
