[QUOTE="Boo1979, post: 1926592, member: 446715"] Depends what meds youre on. With Glilazide or insulin T2s should get a meter (see NICE guidelines) but with other meds or diet control its unlikely that meters will be provided. Some GPs give the meters to newly diagnosed T2s (the Gp practices get them free from the manafacturers any way) but then wont prescribe strips beyond an initial 1 or 2 tubs to help wih initial diet planning / monitoring and understanding trends etc [/QUOTE]
