Change of meter was because the meter was inaccurate. My Endo said I'd get no more than 2 years out of a meter after that they become inaccurate. They change theirs on the wards every 6 months for the same reason.
I know you didn't blame me directly for poor BG just looked that way to me. I took your post the wrong way.
Endo said I have to take a step back, not try to many things at once, that's why I'm not taking advice at the moment. Taken to much advice over the last few years, so sticking to what he tells me.
As for poor advice by HCP's , I couldn't agree more. Changed GP and Endo several times.
I know how to get hypo awareness back that's why I'm trying to cut out hypos and run BG higher.

Many of the Endo's in this country have been to his talks when he was in this country a few years ago. Some of the other posters on this forum have mentioned him in the past.
You're right I wouldn't pay £300 for a meter as I wouldn't £3000 for a pump but meters are covered by the NHS, that's how I got mine.
