[QUOTE="Seacrow, post: 2356023, member: 420515"] The health care you get is pretty much entirely dependent on the doctor. A good doctor, and anything you can justify is there. A 'bad' doctor, and if it's not in the regulations and 'guidelines', you can whistle for it. I've had multiple c-peptide tests and one fasting insulin test on the NHS (to rule out some obscure condition). I think at the time I was classified as severe insulin resistance (type 2), but the doctor thought the tests were reasonable and so I got them. The difference in phlebotomist experience might be hospital vs. GP personnel. [/QUOTE]
