Agreed. Wife does have her uses, chuck it all in her bag, oh yes. But is just when she lets you out on your own, lol!

Interesting! On the NHS?

The meter itself looks quite a bit bigger than freestyle lite though? There's a load of different meters, but none of them seem to be perfect self contained units that can fit in your pocket. Bearing in mind you do have to carry other stuff as well.

The freestyle lite is about as good as it gets I think. But then a bottle of strips and the lancing device in the wallet and it becomes something that will completely fill your jean pocket. Then you've got your pen and some glucose. Then your normal stuff, phone money and wallet, keys, etc. If...

IMO this is the best lancing device. Small, simple and no fancy adjustment stuff that never works! I've got 3, but there all fairly worn out now. Would love to be able to get some new ones. But just cant find them anywhere. Anybody know?

Bought 300 BD microfine ultra 4mm. Should be good I think. OK £20, but they'll last me an age! I suppose I'll then go and sell the NHS supplied ones on ebay to cover the cost of my new purchase, bleeding stupid TBF!

I actually use 4mm and this is good with me. It seems in the UK that different regions of NHS are offering different tips is this right? It looks like I can buy unifine 4mm from ebay, Not actually sure though if the latest ones have inner cap or not though? Is the no-cap style a cost saving or...

So which are the best? ie. With a cap (imperative for me!) Cap is not too long, so will fit inside the novopen 5 cover. Needle with good injection performance. Anyone?

So where do you get these Swiss tips??? I have dime comfort point, the plastic cap is fractionally too long for the novopen 5 cover to fit correctly, so sometimes the pen will lose its cover, great! The last decent tips I had were exel comfort point 4mm, which are now no longer available. Cost...
