[QUOTE="Daphne917, post: 2387343, member: 124172"] Unfortunately you are not alone - when I told my DN that I was testing I was told there was no need and it would only make my fingers sore to which I replied that I would rather have sore fingers than no fingers or go blind. Most T2s, like me, self fund and IMHO it is the most important piece of kit in my armoury to stop my T2 progressing. It’s a shame the NHS does not provide them as, in the long run, it would be more cost effective than having to pay for meds and operations as patients progressively get worse. [/QUOTE]
