[QUOTE="Heathenlass, post: 750504, member: 84861"] No, same pen for all doses. If you need a full unit dial up to that number, but remember there are twice as many clicks due to the half dose increments. Are you Type 1 ? If so your surgery should not be restricting your lancets, strips or anything else. They are essential for your care. If you are seeing a consultant or Diabetic Specialist Nurse at your hospital, contact them and explain what is happening. They will write or phone the surgery to correct this. Otherwise, ask to speak to your practice manager and explain why you need to have the amount you need. Sadly, the prescription managers are fairly clueless about what is involved, but are usually happy to amend prescription quantities where there is a genuine need. Good luck ! Signy [/QUOTE]
