[QUOTE="KELI, post: 674294, member: 78264"] Hi Forty six, My previous GP's was abroad (southern Ireland) and private so the more they did, the more they got paid! Test strips etc were all private prescriptions so I'm used to paying for them. Now that I'm back in the UK (my home country) it's all gone to pot! Only had one diabetic review in two years, they won't prescribe lancets or test strips and they've just diagnosed me with background retinopathy. I'm a diet controlled type 2 btw. Dietitian refused to allow me to go below 130g carbs a day. Nothing like getting help when you need it is there! I'm so grateful to get everyone's input on this. I will fast before the bloods because I know they will be doing kidney function test. Thanks for that. [/QUOTE]
