[QUOTE="IanD, post: 666210, member: 6186"] I was encouraged to test from diagnosis - I bought my own meter - & have since been prescribed all the test strips I have requested. At a 1-day XPERT refresher course, most participants did not test, (Hounslow PCT don't approve prescribing test strips on grounds of cost) & one had asked, & been assured that he should not worry - we will test you regularly. He had a heart condition as well as diabetes. It transpired that "regularly" was annually!! [/QUOTE]
