[QUOTE="Prem51, post: 1996960, member: 209498"] Welcome to the forum [USER=501088]@paulineg[/USER]. Type 2 diabetics aren't usually prescribed blood glucose meters or testing strips, unless they are on insulin or similar medications. It's mainly because of the cost it would incur to the NHS. Bg meters are often given free by the manufacturers but the real ongoing cost is the testing strips. The cheapest are the SD Codefree and the TEE2+, which I use. I am copying the contact details below for ordering them, but if you ring Spirit Healthcare for the TEE2+ they often send you one for free, rather than paying £9.99 if you order online.
