Long shot request for help from any diabetics
Discussion
Hi all,
This is a real long shot, but then PH generally seems quite good at those!
My wife is a type 1 diabetic. She uses Accu-chek test strips, and has just opened a new box of strips to find out that they now need a new black testing chip, rather than the old white one. Utterly inconveniently, the box doesn't contain one, so she now has no test strips, and seemingly no way of getting any until Roche post her a new chip some time 3-5 working days from Monday!
So, here's the long shot request - does anyone by any chance have one of these things spare that you'd be willing to donate, and which could be collected somewhere within a reasonable distance from Epsom by 10 tomorrow morning, or somewhere in the general vicinity of Victoria station tomorrow afternoon? Worst case scenario, could someone pop one in the post tomorrow, so she can get going on Monday?
As I said - a real long shot, but you never know! I'm hoping PH can beat the forum at diabetes.co.uk to get me a resolution!
