Hi
I have received free strips and lancets for 4 years without question I still test because of my other conditions no two days are the same, I can eat something one day, the next time I eat it I either drop below three or above 10. I need to know what is happening so that I can adjust what I’m eating. According to NI.CE I should test before driving how can I do that if I don’t have the ability to test. I cannot afford to pay I’m a pensioner on a fixed income.

I agree with what @lucylocket61 has said about driving, also if the same meal sometimes gives 3 and sometimes 10 how do you use those numbers, you have already eaten the meal so it is too late to do anything about it.
