@EllsBells
are you sure you shoul still be paying for prescriptions now ?
As soon as I was diagnosed as Diabetic my surgery got me a medical exemption certificate so I’ve not paid for prescriptions since.

I'm not sure - the GP surgery hasn't mentioned it. It would be automatic if I went on meds. The meter is irrelevant in a way as the original was only on loan.

If you are diet only you don't get an exemption, If you are Diabetes medication then you need to ask your surgery for an exemption certificate.
