I have two medical devices that force me to make a list of results for
the doctor. One is my blood pressure machine and the other is my
blood glucose tester.

I don't know if anyone else would find it useful, but I would like to
be able to transfer the data to my computer instead of having to write
it down. I know I can get an expensive model, but I think I have a
pretty economical solution by adding a USB port to each device.

Program the machines at the factory to send the data to an email
address stored on a USB wireless network adapter. I know that the
devices do not use this method now, but it would be an almost no cost
improvement if manufacturers would implement it.

I use OnTrack Diabetes manager on my Android phone. It's dead easy to
simply key in my data after each test as the phone is always with me. I
can export the data as CSV or XML or HTML and copy that to my computer
to print it for my doc if I want. If you have an Android it's a great
add-on. And Free too. You can read about it he

Here's a sample from my export (unfortunately the News Group strips out
som of the formatting):

You could just email me your results and I can multiply them by 2 and
use them as mine. My results are never that low. You must starve
yourself or eat all that food with no flavor.
