Yes - in the uk anyone with any type of diabetes (except possibly type 2 that's diet controlled) is entitled to free prescriptions - you need to get a form to fill in so that you can get an exception certificate - ask at your dr's surgery or your pharmacist. You might also be able to get a free blood meter from your gp or hospital clinic as companys give them some to hand out but it depends on where you live (easier in Scotland than it is in England - dunno why!) xx

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.
I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

Forget anything you have ever been told about Diabetes.
And get this - it has NOTHING to do with insulin, exercise, diet or anything else you've heard in the past.
It's all based on latest breakthrough research that Big Pharma is going Stir Crazy to hide from you.

Many common natural remedies are claimed to have blood sugar lowering properties that make them useful for people with or at high risk of diabetes. Learn here https://tr.im/vhPA3
A number of clinical studies have been carried out in recent years that show potential links between herbal therapies and improved blood glucose control, which has led to an increase in people with diabetes using these more 'natural' ingredients to help manage their condition.

Yes, but only if their diabetes needs medication, i.e. not if they are only diet controlled diabetics. Pick up a form at your GP, fill it in and pass it back to the receptionist. You will be sent an exemption certificate.

Yes they do and they also get free eye tests, and dental treatment, they never have to pay for any perscriptions of any type. Type 1 diabetics that is not sure about type 2.

It depends on whether you are on medication for your diabetes...if so then yes you can get free prescriptions but if you are diet only then you are unable to.
