[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2443082, member: 365308"] The last time I went to the pharmacist to get insulin he told me I could be ordering more bottles of the stuff than the 2 x 10ml that I usually get. I did get into trouble once when the prescription came back with short acting insulin pens rather than lantus. Thought I could manage with short acting until the mistake was resolved and ended up DKA and being very told off for taking up an acute care bed. Ironically I am now on 24/7 short acting via the pump of course. But yes agree that it is ignorance that would lead to someone being denied a regular life sustaining medication whose absence leads to such an acute decline in health for a type 1. [/QUOTE]
