I wrote to my MP about the restriction of test strips (currently happening in some English Health Boards). Didn't hear anything for ages and today I got a letter from him sympathising with any T1 diabetic who have their strips restricted and has copied me a letter he has sent to my health board requesting confirmation that they have no such plans to do this. The more we publicise this issue the better and hopefully we can get people to realise that good control through regular testing (and of course acting on those results) will mean less cash spent on admissions and problems later. :thumbup: I wrote using my personal circumstances I.e. a T1 diabetic but know it affects T2's as well.
