Hi guys , hope you are all well.
I'm a type 1 diabetic , and have used insulin pens for all this time , odd question to ask but do you think my gp would let me have a handful of syringes ?
The reason I ask is , last week I visited a friend in Manchester , and I believe my insulin pen was pick pocketed whilst travelling. It took me a good 5/6 hours until I could get hold of a new pen and obviously it send my sugars rocketing. I'd love to have a syringe or two just to keep to one side at home , and on me whilst travelling if anything like this happens again , because believe me , I was bricking it when I lost my pen
Hope you can help , thanks in advance
