    Rant

    I loved my contour usb but now can't use it as the strips can't be prescribed. I use the memory on my meter to get my reading but on new meter I keep deleting them! I do hope bayer will reduce the test strips cost so I can use it again

    car insurance

    Insurance companies are not allowed to charge you more if you have diabetes and are on a restricted licience. you can test the theory as I do get a quote! then get a quote telling then about the diabetes and restricted licience the premium will not change!
