The computer was telling them in October I couldn't have anything until January 2017 when I was on a monthly repeated prescription. I do appreciate my healthcare providers, on the whole, but not their systems.I miss the days when I din't see a GP from one year's end to the next and on the rare occasion I had to, apart from weight, they would grumble I had no right to be producing healthy results. (Blood pressure was the one which outraged one GP.)But, now it's more or less all under control for now, I miss very little other than this and the freedom to walk into a eatery and eat whatever I like when I'm out. The lunch box always goes with me now, with a midday lunch and extra snacks. It's routine now, but drove me mad the first few months. That's my new freedom - to go out and do what I like for as long as I like, knowing there's going to be no stress about whether or not I can find easy food which won't send me high.</blockquote>
