[QUOTE="johnlfitz, post: 395483, member: 66211"] I was surprised too ..... but they obviously are told they have to reduce costs (taking care of "the now") as opposed to giving people the test strips so that they can tackle it head on (benefits NHS long term surely as less complications ..... ? ). I can imagine that they prescribe a lot of strips in the past that don't get used too much ...... but that doesn't help me. I've switched from Accu-Chek Aviva monitor and strips to the SD Codefree meter (the strips are much cheaper on the Codefree). When I tested both machines at the same time using the same blood prick, they were 0.1 or 0.2 difference, so that was good enough for me to defect to the SD Codefree. One thing I have noticed is that 3 x 200mg of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid brings blood glucose down by 1-1.5 mmol as a guess (hard to prove what my bg would have been if I don't take them). [/QUOTE]
