I live in Scotland and get 100 strips from give doctor on prescription free every month.

Alright, alright, we know, we're paying for it..

That said, if we each paid another 5p or so per prescription we could probably give the residents of Yorkshire free prescriptions - they have about the same population as Scotland...


 
I didn't ask about a monitor etc I bought one and buy my strips.

Worth asking. And show them the recommendation that we need to test to understand what is going on with our blood sugars. We are all do different.

My family have had more than their fair share of NHS services over the past few years so buying strips every few months is ok for me
