[QUOTE="GLees26, post: 2078981, member: 281169"] I was going in hospital for a procedure in November last year and had to see the diabetic nurse because my blood sugars were bordering high for an op 70 the nurse gave me a monitor blood strips and lancets to check my bloods and bring the readings down which helped me enormously. I have since tried to check my blood intermittently and when they go over 7 I pull back and sort myself out. I have run out of the blood strips and have been told by my doc that because I am only on one tablet, metformin, they won’t give me a prescription and it protocol. It’s possible I may have to have a knee replacement and want to check my bloods more often and keep the readings good but he won’t budge ?? [/QUOTE]
