[QUOTE="kaya659, post: 857418, member: 70335"] I also went to my doctor because I was feeling unwell & my BG readings were high for me.She also gave me a lecture about not testing because I was on Metformin & it was unneccessary & my regular results from my Diabetic nurse were quite good.I try to explain the reson everything was going well was because I tested 2/3 a day but she didn't want to know,all she did want to know was who had prescribed the testing strips in the first place( my regular GP as it happens).Not had any stripes for 3 months now so it will be interesting to see what happens at my next review [/QUOTE]
