This may be a perennial on this forum but if so, direct me to previous discussions.
I am testing blood glucose and I am using a prefilled Trulicity pen to inject once a week. I am accumulating a lot of waste - used lancets and test strips and used pens and would welcome advice as to how to dispose of them. The GPs' surgery say it is not their problem, and the chemists who dispense the prescriptions have washed their hands of it, and say that cannot dispose of used consumables.
So - is this a general problem and what do others do? I haven't even mentioned the over-engineered canisters in which the Glucose test strips are supplied.
