[QUOTE="Cultivator, post: 356377, member: 48941"] Just a word of caution... I tried to buy canestan over the counter last year and the pharmacist actually asked if I was diabetic and then said she couldn't sell it to me ! So I did get it from G.P - who never batted and eyelid and didn't give me any advice about it being connected to my sugar levels or anything - so that was a fat lot of use - apart from the fact that I didn't have to pay for it ! tee heee. Bought some more recently in a different chemist (yes, I could do with better sugar control - obv :( ) and this one asked me how old I am as, apparantly they can't sell it to over 60's !! Leaving aside a vague sense of surprise at her thinking I could be over 60 I suppose the best thing - and cheapest - is to get it from G.p. Supermarket is so much easier though :think: [/QUOTE]
