Hi,
Wondering if anyone has any advice.
Without telling me first, my doctor has reduced my repeat for blood checking strips from 4 bottles per month to 2, which for me I don't feel is enough.
They tried last year to put me on cheaper strips, gave me a machine 'just to try', and even though after two months I stopped ordering those strips - it seems they're pushing me into these strips by now reducing the strips for my good machine.
Does anyone have any advice?
Or know which section of NICE may have the current up to date guidelines on what is correct procedure and allowance for t1 diabetic prescription items?
