Message: <blockquote data-quote="nmr1991" data-source="post: 1142663" data-attributes="member: 35685"><p>the old ones i used to be on got discontinued as i got a load of them all at once, about 6 boxes of 50x strips. but then I was given a new meter (accuchek mobile) which used cartridges instead of strips which i only received 3 of and the finger pricker also used different lancets, i told the dsn that the surgery wouldn't supply the new cartridges so they gave me a new meter which used different test strips to the others which atm i'm trying to get them funded but they don't show up on the system. So recently I went back to the old ones which happen to be about 3 years old, at the time I got them they were already about 6 months to a year old, must be just giving them out before they discontinue them, which they eventually did so they disappeared from my prescription list. The new meter I got from the hospital and its the surgery that says it only allows 1 or 2 types of strips to be funded, will have to find out tomorrow as bank holiday today.</p></blockquote><p></p>
