[QUOTE="Dixon1995, post: 1886036, member: 487884"] My doctor has changed all my prescriptions to cheaper alternatives, like levemir to abasaglar, and b-microfine to braun, however, I asked to keep my 150 strips per month because I test often to make loads of corrections so I can be as non diabetic as possible I said take away my strips I will not have great control, she said ok I will keep you on 3 boxes, I wouldn't mind I reduced my needles to 2 boxes instead of 3 for them and agreed to cheaper alternatives, the aviva nano strips I have can be sourced for £11 a box online dont see a problem, could just die might be cheaper for them They wouldnt say boo to a vulnerable drug taker who is getting better but not really, but a type 1 diabetic whos fault it is not to be diabetic they will.... pfft [/QUOTE]
