@KentSorvik it's not all machines that you can use non finger blood. You need to check with the manufacturer. I do know that there are some machines however that let you use arm blood.

I use the side of my ring finger, seems like it is less painful and a very good blood specimen!

@carolmpetersonrn avoiding the pads of the finger prints certainly helps as there are a lot of nerve ending there.

This guy may be a professional unless it has changed since when the video was made I was taught through my class that never use it where the nerve endings are on your fingers because thats where the sensative areas are.

@PrincessMeggy025 you would not do it right over the pads of the finger, yes there are heaps of nerve endings there. I just just to the side of that area and I don't get pain.
