[QUOTE="Derbysocks, post: 1705746, member: 293859"] I am in the UK & type 2 on insulin and pills. As soon as you are diagnosed diabetic you fill in a form in which your doctor confirms you are diabetic and all prescriptions are free from that point on. Type 2’s on diet & pills sometimes get bg meters but not alway. I didn’t have a meter for years but then I have never had a low. As soon as you go onto insulin you should get a meter and supplies for it on prescription. My diabetic nurse has just switch all bg meters to an accu-check meter as they have been given them for free and the supplies are supposedly cheaper than my current wave sense jazz meter. [/QUOTE]
