Documents to take to the doctor

Hi all,

I have recently read a post where a link was added for someone to print and take to the dr to show what the BSH guilines are.

Can anyone please post this again as I want to take it to my Dr to see if that makes a difference?

I’m currently paying privately but I feel I need injections more often and can’t drive 45 minutes each way every other day. Also costs £25 per injection.

Thanks so much.

Twenty-Five Quid! Wow! I need to set myself up in business.

Most of us pay something like £1 per injection by buying from Germany.

I have learned to love needles . They help keep me well . I also used to hate them . You just need the finest recommended injection needle , which is totally painless - no discomfort at all The first self-injection is a bit scary I admit .

But first do try to get extra injections from Your GP. Very best wishes !
