I have been told repeatedly by this site that I need to test, I have been diagnosed around 2 and a half years now, diet control only, whilst I do understand the implications of not testing and this is not contestable by me. I do have to admit that I am a bit of woose when it comes to jabs and especially blood, sorry guys, that I have to learn to overcome. But aside of all that is the cost of strips, I am not entitled to free NHS prescriptions at this time, but even if I were my GP is adamant that I do not need to test. In all other circumstances she is a very caring and sympathetic GP, and I to date I would not have cause to question her ability as a Doctor, but I really cannot understand this attitude towards testing that the NHS seems to have - the last time I asked her, she looked almost shocked, shaking her head and saying 'Oh no'. Please can someone explain what is going on here, is there a hidden curriculum within the GP in regard to self testing, or, I am afraid to say this as I pretty much can predict the reaction here - is it really necessary to self test when all NHS checks come up fine?
There I have said it, I expect a flood of posts admonishing me for the testing question. Would also like to hear what you wise owls have to say about the NHS and self testing issue, it surely cannot be just about money, and why, oh why do they insist on telling us to eat lots of carbohydrates. I have another post on this - so as not to confuse the issue of the two posts :wink:
