[QUOTE="SimonCrox, post: 1906653, member: 388174"] The patient with the broken needles was 20 years ago or more, when patients had to pay for their pen needles, and so used them until they hurt, and then some sharpened them up and used them some more. Diabetes UK campaigned successfully then to get pen needles on prescription. Before that, they had successfully campaigned to get the plastic syringes on prescription, before which folk either paid and made them last a while or used the horrible glass syringes and thick needles. There is often scope for improvement, but things have improved over the last 35 years (thankfully). :) [/QUOTE]
