[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 1717255"] If you have diabetes which is treated by more than diet, you are entitled to a medical exemption certificate which entitles you to free prescriptions. Take a look at [URL]https://www.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/exemption-certificates/medical-exemption-certificates[/URL] which tells you how to apply for a medical exemption certificate. If you do not have this certificate (even if you are clearly entitled to it) you are may be fined for declaring you are entitled to free prescriptions so I would strongly advise you to get one as soon as possible. Unfortunately, the bureaucrats who devised this system do not want it abused so everyone must apply for a new certificate when their's expires. It is not assumed that because you have type 1 diabetes, you will always have type 1 diabetes. I guess someone may find a cure one day! [/QUOTE]
