[QUOTE="anna29, post: 666282, member: 30936"] Lists of GP's/DSN's who don't issue meters/strips isn't a positive move to [B]change[/B] things . Collective petitions in huge numbers from persons can change things in the long haul . This is how changes to laws happens ! Fixed rules with strapped budgets within the NHS are harder a boundary to change . Within the forum - some members will be much luckier than others on this current topic . Those who keep lower BG ranges appear to be hit more with this type of advice . For others with escalating/erratic , or trough/peak , BG levels needing meds/insulin appear to have more success in HCP's promotive advice of check and testing BG levels and supply of blood sugar meters and test strips. Maybe the HCP's are prioritising those who are with better controlled BG ranges than those who aren't as well controlled ? Worth a thought ? Some areas are harder hit than others with lack of budget resources 'fact' . So no amount of arguing,demanding,asking repeatedly can/will change this [U]sadly ![/U] The advice from the HCP's will reflect this matter also . The healthcare teams of DSN,GP's will have been told to prioritise most likely . There are changes all over the NHS and many restructurising schemes happening . The podiatry teams within NHS are currently experiencing this presently . Some even losing their jobs and others being demoted to lower income pay . After years of loyal service too . . [/QUOTE]
