Diabetes care in BA

[malissa]

Hello! I hope someone can help! I am due to move to BA in the next few months from Scotland due to my husbands job, however i have type 1 diabetes. I was wondering what the health care was like and how you get prescriptions etc and wondered if anyone else has had to deal this this, and whether you can advise whats best for me to do! thanks

You dont need a prescription for insulin just show the package from the last bottle you have. Not all pharmacies have all types so you might have to treasure hunt but in my opinion the humulin insulin is of better quality than in the US at least. I dont know the deal with apointments yet but im sure its cake.
