Has anyone on Tresiba had dodgy batches of pens where the mechanism is jamming? Had two different batch numbers with the same issue recently

Thanks, I think it is sorted now. If not I will be taken the written complaint route as now know who practice manager is.

Don't be scared, like I said at the start this is not all GPs and I hope that now it is sorted. I agree that you should prepare yourself with a list of what you need to ask/say and explain what you need from them. Try not to worry and good luck x

Yeah don't get that logic, hopefully it will be sorted tomorrow for you. I finally got the rest of my prescription today.

Finally have half my prescription, main thing is got the strips I needed. Found out who practice manager is too. Fingers crossed @Diakat for your prescription.

Someone off reception at GPs has just called. They said no one knew why it happened but think it is because my insulin had been took off repeat prescription again. They have not got a record of the prescription I put in on Thursday either. She said she would request them again but it would take...

Hopefully so x

I do appreciate my GP and at the start of this said they have always been great. I have no doubt that my GP doesn't even know. It was the specialist diabetes team of nurses that the other practice have that wrote the letter, none of whom were available at the time I went In to surgery. I am...

Thanks, couldn't view links on my phone yesterday, looked at them today on laptop very informative, will save them in case I need them x

Sorry but I don't understand what you mean, why are they about to be swamped? Even if they are type 1s need to test, my type 2 parents at same surgery got letters telling them they will get new more expensive meters and strips and need to test more often so clearly not bothered that much about...

Will do and good luck

I think that farcical is the word

Unfortunately they do not seem to know the difference between cost cutting and put patients lives at risk

Receptionist was the one who promised to get it sorted and get me a call back as the practice manager was 'not there' yet again.

Yeah, since we merged there is no info on who practice manager is and don't get a straight answer when you ask who this is and ''they aren't available" when you ask to see one.

Totally beyond words!

Yeah, I am going to call my diabetes team at hospital on Monday I know my nurse will rip them new A holes when I tell her!

Yeah had that fight to had to get the hospital to point out that 50 strips last me about a week!

Yeah, furious doesn't even cover it. To top it off my parents have just called me, they are type 2 and have always tested but always had to battle to get prescriptions for test strips. They got letters today from same GP practice congratulating them on now qualifying to get new meters and that...
