[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1121525, member: 41816"] When i first hit the Big D i thought it unfair that i, a T2 didn't get a meter on prescription - and a free prescription at that. Now i am a little more informed (financial status of NHS, hidden costs of health system, situation in other countries, yada, yada) my opinion has changed. I still consider self testing to be an absolute priority for all diabetics, and would personally choose it as a priority over meals out, smoking, alcohol and even running a car. But i think the NHS should be spending its pennies on life saving cancer treatments, emergency services and similar, while those who can, fund their own self testing. I put my money where my mouth is, and self fund a Libre, part time. [/QUOTE]
