[QUOTE="axle 222, post: 919706, member: 192704"] The yellow sharps bins generally come either from your gp or if under diabetic nurse,from her,or if under hospital team from them. Repeats are usually from g.p....... you are correct testing strips and finger prickers go into the box..you may get told testing strips don't have to and can be disposed of in household waste. But as they contain a small amount of blood I was told put into yellow sharps bin......drs have to pay to dispose of bins so they will want you to fill it right up to the line....... [/QUOTE]
