[QUOTE="ButtterflyLady, post: 914786, member: 43498"] I think there are two separate issues here. Doctors who say don't test, and doctors who say we are not going to fund your test strips. I think the former is really bad, and the latter is just the way of the world, and something we should accept, at least for now. There are a lot of conditions and disabilities where people have to partly fund their self-management, treatment or care. It sucks, but you can spend your time trying to fight the system, or you can look for the cheapest test strips you can find. Where doctors, or nurses, are telling people testing is pointless or harmful, that is a big problem and the people charged with educating these people need to do something about that. [/QUOTE]
