[QUOTE="Minnie45, post: 980556, member: 131752"] I really do believe all diabetics should have the opportunity to test, it's essential for T1s but also for any T2 on blood glucose lowering meds/insulin, as well as a very useful tool for T2s not on blood glucose lowering meds, but the unattractive reality is how can the NHS fund every single diabetic re. strips. One way would be to negotiate contacts with the pharma companies across the whole NHS, the price of some strips seems completely OTT. I remember as a young T1 going onto a blood glucose monitor and having to self fund, thankfully nowadays I'm fully funded but I do still top up supplies by self funding vis ebay or amazon. [/QUOTE]
