About Me

My photo
I live in Phoenix AZ, and have been working at the cable company since 1989, (I'll let you do the math...it depresses me too much!). I have a dog and a drum set at home that I play with/on regularly. Oh...and a computer. Duh... I shoot all Canon gear. Currently the 40D. I mainly focus on Glamour/Beauty/Artistic Nude photography, but I also love Event & Street photography!

FDA Issues Nationwide Alert on Counterfeit One Touch Basic/Profile and One Touch Ultra Blood Glucose Test Strips

FDA Issues Nationwide Alert on Counterfeit One Touch Basic/Profile and One Touch Ultra Blood Glucose Test Strips

Ok everyone, this one hits pretty close to home since I have had Diabetes for about 8 years or so. Normally when I see these types of alerts in emails and such I am the first one to investigate it and verify it's a legitamate issue. I strongly encourage you to do the same. But, if you follow this link, you will see that this is for real. If you or someone you know use these test strips (I do!) PLEASE read this information and check the Lot Number on your supplies. It just makes sense to me to be safe...

Here is a link straight to the manufactures site that talks directly to this issue:
