[QUOTE="nmr1991, post: 452200, member: 35685"] I requested ketostix (ketone test strips) but didn't receive them on the prescription, are they discontinued like so many other medication have been? I have also resorted to having no insulin left until the next few days because my surgery needs to take 48 hours for online prescriptions, I just hope that I can go through the next few days without my basal insulin (Lantus), I don't have any out-of-pocket money left to buy it from the chemist as an emergency. Is this risking DKA, I haven't eaten anything apart from light snacks, have no ketostix to test with so I have no idea if I have DKA or not. The reason why I don't have my lantus is because I thought I had more in the fridge but I realized that when I asked for that on my prescription they did not prescribe it to me - this makes me wonder if it also has been discontinued.
