Paying for prescriptions...

[Spiral]

So, what is the rule?

What can T2 diabetics get for free?

Have I shot myself in the foot with free prescriptions by refusing medication and doing so well with the diet and exercise?

Yes,you have !!!If you don't have any prescribed diabetic medications then you have to pay.

I wonder if my GP would buy my change of heart towards metformin, after all, I don't actually have to get the script made up...

I may have shot myself in the foot with the prescription thing, but I have just spoken to a very nice man at the Roche Accu-Chec Aviva customer care line (0800701000) who is sending me a FREE meter and all the gubbins that goes with it to transfer the data to the 'puter

Now I just have to do a bit of backpedalling with my GP. Lets hope I'm not doing too brilliantly when I see him on Monday :roll:
