i just had the email too saying they were going to refund the VAT and shipping costs. I wonder what are the chances that they will become available on the NHS? I believe it will work out cheaper than funding my test strips at 300 a month.

Disaster day. We went for a papa johns pizza for a birthday of a friend. I planned to be good and just have maybe 1 slice and a salad. But I just couldn't stop myself. I had 4 big slices and a salad. I had a cookie afterwards and then some beer, then they stopped and bought dohnuts and ice...
