Ok slightly in panic mode just gone to get my accuchek aviva testing kit out of my bag and looks like I’ve lost it, what do I do??? Can’t contact insurance pump people till Monday!!! Just managed to find an old testing test stressing
 
Hi @Tracyann35 Get on Facebook and look for 'help we forgot t1 kit uk' group, you can post on here and hopefully someone nearby will have a spare meter you can borrow until you get a replacement, or just pick one up at a pharmacy tomorrow. Don't panic though as the stress won't help your bg levels, it will get sorted, take care Hun
 

I can’t believe insurance company are only open Mon - Fri and no out of hours
It’s the Handset I need might call Accuchek line, could go back to Mdi but not exactly sure levels to take yep really stressed now
thank you!!!
 
Accucheck aviva is a regular glucose meter and has nothing to do with the pump, right? If you or any friend of you are on facebook, post a search for any meter and test strips in a local group, regardless what the group is about. You'll probably find one within the hour. Good luck!
 

If you have found a meter and strips, are you sorted until Monday? If not, you might be able to pick up a meter of some sort in a pharmacy tomorrow.
 
As long as you have a meter you can still just manually input your bg reading so having a compatible meter shouldn't be a problem.
