Given you are asking in Cancer I am gunisseg you are taking your temp during chemo treatments to monitor for infection.I found the digital thermometer easier to read (didn't need my glasses) and I was able to keep the temp showing for second opinion after I removed it.However, they can become inaccurate after time (expecially if someone helpful tries to sterilise with boiling water!)When I had a visiting nurse after surgery, she isued me with a glass thermometer but was happy to swap to my digital. Her opinion was the digital were easier to use but they could only issue glass because of affordability.
