Hi

I got back to DN on 22/6 for 3 month review will be interesting if she gives me a script as she said she wouldnt put them on repeat,i wasted over half when i couldnt get blood, but i clean houses for a living and a couple of my customers are diabetic, they said its stupid they wouldnt give me repeats, both of theres do so im ok for lancets and strips at the mo
 
Spoke too soon, they dont fit yet same machine did blood before tea 3.7 now cant do it anymore

@goosey39 Can I just ask what machine you have please? I bought a Code Free, I'm just wondering what my chances of getting strips and lancets on prescription are.
 
Codefree, the DN gave me it but said she wouldnt put them on repeat as they were too expensive but receptionist did

Oh so it is possible, thanks for your reply! I have a follow up in July for my first HbA1c test since diagnosis. If it shows an improvement maybe I can bargain with them as it is proving invaluable to me to gauge how I doing. After all if I can prevent complications I'll save the NHS money in the future
 
Yes my follow up is 22nd June
