[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2270014, member: 451727"] Hi miss miss, I think you are saying then that ALL diabetics should have unlimited test strips whether they are on insulin/glucose lowering drugs or not? I was commenting on type 1s (or those on such drugs), not on those who are diet only or on drugs that don't cause hypos. My own opinion is that type 2s should have an amount of strips for testing when they need to (and more than the norm if they can justify it to their circumstances) and a monitor but they don't even get a monitor (mostly) in the UK and that is wrong. As for your original post, well it sounds very alarming that your levels went so high that you nearly died?, that sounds like an extreme scenario and I can fully understand why you want more strips than normal. x [/QUOTE]
