Remember it's a 4 day weekend coming up. Good Friday (Apr 14) and Easter Monday (Apr 17) are Bank Holidays so most pharmacies will be closed. Don't forget to get your meds before that if you're running low or about to run low. Just a heads up as I'm going through BG testing strips like nobodies business right now and only re-ordered today.
 
Just been on to order my repeat today. They changed the online system a few months ago and it's not been very good so far. My DSN sent a treatment advice last week to change my Novorapid to cartridges so I can start using my Novopen Echo which has resulted in them simply removing Novorapid from the prescription.
 
Does your pharmacy home deliver? Not suitable for everybody, I know. Great for me as I run my businesses from home. Usually 24-48 hours after ordering a nice lady turns up with it all :)

@DiabeticDadUK what a very thoughtful post - thank you so much for the heads-up!

I'm sorted, thanks - but you've reminded me to remind Mr S to have a look-see for his own supplies!!!!

Oh, you're welcome. Never fun to find yourself low on strips or insulin and it's a BH weekend :)
 
Thanks for the reminder, I've got mine but there's another holiday in two weeks. Wish I was working and getting a holiday. HA!
