Back again kids. Realised I had this old thread, no point making a new one! Currently using a Verio IQ meter. Been told the strips for this are being discontinued. Any suggestions on a new meter? I've got my clinic appointment at the hospital next week & I'll be enquiring about a Libre as a...

Prescription changed to Fastclix. Lets see how this goes!

Thanks for the replies folks. Looks like that might be the way forward!

As the title suggests, the One Touch lancet discontinuation has hit me finally. Onto my last box, had the device for years, was the best one for me by far. Pigeon-holed onto the Delica device, which is sore, even on 1, the Comfort was always kept on 1 for me & worked grand. Had looked into the...

It's the way it has been conducted. If I was given the option I may have considered it. This way, no!

Glad to hear I'm not on my own regarding this matter. I'll be going to my meeting on Thursday with some support.

As the above question states, I received a letter from my GP stating that I am being changed (I've my checked my prescription via Patient Access and it's all changed!) from my Verio IQ meter to a Select Plus meter. Not a happy bunny regarding this, I've to come in & be given my new stuff. Would...

A 2 week dose of Ciprofloxacin. Couple of samples off for more in depth tests. Interesting leaflet with those tablets too!

Thanks for the reply Lesley. It's good to know that someone knows what I'm on about, I must have described it well [emoji1] Off to the GP's later, so I'll see what happens

Morning folks, I'm back to tap the collective knowledge of the forum. This is a tricky one for me. I've been to my GP's in the past with something that I'd describe as phantom UTI. Been told it could be in my head! The symptoms I'm having are a general discomfort in that area, I was woken up...

Cheers guys, I think I'll give my DSN a ring, and see what they recommend.

As above people, I haven't changed my prescription for about 4/5 years and my meter is a little bit done out. I remember there being some code that the GP could check on the system, and see if they were able to prescribe it? Has this way changed? Ta, Alan.

They are indeed, the USB I use is PC compatible which is handy. As for the carb counting ones if assume they are ones you enter your offset and it calculates how much you require. I may be describing them wrong lol. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Nice idea, I'm on Android though so I'd need one for that OS. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

I've been out of the 'game' for a few years now. Latest meter I got was the Contour USB. It's a bit of a 1st world problem I know but I'm looking some information on these carb counting meters? I was discussing them with a fellow diabetic and she said how good they were. Any suggestions...

I'm the same myself, colder weather raises my BG so I've to give myself more insulin. It's my excuse to live in Hawaii lol.

I got diagnosed on Friday the 13th a few years back, talk about a sign lol. After I left the GP's I got a bit teary eyed, but ever since I've just got on with it. There is nothing we can do about a T1 dianosis, sure it's not a nice thing to be put through, but I'm so thankful I was diagnosed...

Personally I inject in a disabled toilet in work, personal preference but I do my testing at my desk with no queries. If there was they'd be told where to go! Don't let it affect you Commotion.

Sounds like a challenge to get you into a good squad in BF3!

Still on BF3 chum. You get it?
