Having had type 1 diabetes for many many years, I have been using disposable syringes for a considerable number of those years (it was glass syringes before then!).
When I needed to obtain a new prescription at Christmas for them, I discovered that there was a supply issue with them. So I reluctantly moved over to pre-filled pens. My experience of them is they are awful.
Anyway, at a review, the diabetic nurse has agreed to put the disposable syringes and vials of insulin back onto my prescription (yippeeeee!).
However, I find that there is still a supply issue with them!!
Is anyone else still using disposable syringes? What brand? What size? Is it a national pharmacy?
Any thoughts welcomed.
