Can I use my fingers for testing with the FreeStyle Freedom system?

Yes. Even though the FreeStyle Freedom system allows alternate site testing on the body — forearms, upper arms, hands, thighs and calves — the fingertips are always a testing option. When testing for hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) or if you have hypoglycemic unawareness, we recommend testing on the finger only.
