[QUOTE="dbr10, post: 1362653, member: 174581"] You are absolutely right. Welcome to the fantasy world of NHS diabetes care. You are expected to monitor and control your diabetes without knowing what your blood glucose levels are. The truth is that they just expect you to get worse; and the suspicion must be that that is why they don't bother. Cost saving is more important than patient care. Of course, this idiotic attitude means that it costs more for the NHS to treat the long term complications. Many of us use the SD codefree meter which is available from Amazon and Home Health UK. I think is has the cheapest test strips. Good luck with getting some sense out of your doctor. [/QUOTE]
