[QUOTE="Danaemac, post: 531960, member: 42787"] I recently had my prescriptions blocked by my GP because i was using too many strips on contacting the surgery I was advised i would have to wait 31/2 weeks for an appt with any gp 4 days of worry and stress with not knowing when my next lot of insulin would be given to me numerous calls to the surgery and hospital (who had advised all the testing ) eventually I get a call from the practice manager to give me an appt the next day for the doctor to up my strips to 200 a month a 5 min discussion and another appt wasted when people cant get appointments I was asked by the GP how long this was for ? (how long were they to be at this level ) I just said it isnt going away is it and that was the end of that discussion seriously the stress sent my levels through the roof so fight for what you need they will give in their is a lot of jobsworths in the NHS who think they know best and actually do not have a clue [/QUOTE]
