[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 1561316, member: 429870"] Yes, I can see that must have been disconcerting. I have never had anything like that with Spirit Healthcare, who market the TEE2. Perhaps the firm you contacted thought you might want to claim VAT exemption as a bona fide diabetic. Anyway, it's good you found a fatherly pharmacist you feel you can trust, and best of all that you now have a meter and the means to take your future into your own hands. If you decide to monitor your bg levels regularly, you might want to check that the price for the strips that go with your monitor are competitive (assuming you can't persuade your GP to give you some). Even the cheapest strips on the market cost a lot when one is checking many times a day. [/QUOTE]
