Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

 
Good morning all. Weekend is here once again and I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. My fbs is 6.1 this morning after having some home cooked fried rice with kimchi. Probably had too much. Love the kimchi.
 
Are strips expensive in the UK? In Canada, it is $89.70 for 100 strips.
I pay £5.98 per tub of 50, by buying 5 or 10 tubs at a time with discount codes for Code Free strips from Home Health. That works out at $20.36 Canadian dollars for 100 strips, so compared to you we get off lightly by the looks of it!
 
I buy my own. My GP reluctant to fund testing. I use an AccuChek Mobile and get the 50 use cassettes on Ebay for about £14.
