Hi just making sure all newly diagnosed know that if you need a blood glucose meter then check
Diabetes uk 1st as I did which saved me having to buy one at my own cost as their are some great
Meters to be had. Don't worry about how to get the test strips or the lancets as all you need to do is
Take the meters to your doctors (if you don't pay for prescriptions even better) and ask the Doc to
Make it so you get them on repeat prescriptions. Your pharmacy may not have them in at the time
But should be able to get them by the following morning. Just thought I would share this with anyone
Who was looking at getting a new glucose meter.
