[QUOTE="JamesA, post: 43271, member: 8989"] I think some of the newer disposable monitors/injectors are an absolute disgrace :!: I'm not saying health shouldn't come before global warming/green concerns but I don't think its a case of that. The scummy marketing people seem to have got into the Diabetes market and are trying to sell us tat we don't need. I think it's an absolute disgrace that a disposable monitor will be available on presecription: [url=http://www.homediagnostics.com/our_products/bgm_sidekick.aspx]http://www.homediagnostics.com/our_prod ... ekick.aspx[/url] Especially when you sometimes struggle to get you basic equipment. How has this got past NICE? That particular thing should be bought by people out of their own money when they need it because they're climbing a mountain or something. I'm calling for a boycott on these new ridiculous products. I think we need to have a good think about the disposable diabetes culture generally. [/QUOTE]
