[QUOTE="johnny37, post: 622684, member: 24624"] thanks for the replies. My gp woukld like me to reduce to 6 drums in a 60 day prescribing period ie 5 a day. The benefit of regular testing is well documented but 'how many'. The letter linked by noblehead is not very specific. I fully appreciate the need to keep costs down. I believe diabetes is the biggest single cost to the nhs. After 30 yrs of unrestricted access I must have cost the nhs a fortune. I am seeing my DSN soon and will try to get her on board. Ive had a rotten time in the last month with wide swings for no reason, and consequently lots of testing. If I can get better control I think the gp might be persuaded to compromise! Ive also got an industry professional (my son) researching exactly how much individual strips cost to the nhs. [/QUOTE]
