I have the same trouble with my doctor. He, and the one before him, both said 3 strips a day was plenty. The reason they say that is because they can be bought in boxes of 100 and divided by 30 days comes out to just over 3 strips a day. I asked for 5 a day and he said he would write a prescription for that but after I left, he sent in a prescription for 3 a day. I went back and had to get really nasty with the clown before I actually got the prescription for 5 strips a day. The sad thing is, I wanted to ask for 200 strips a month, or roughly 7 strips a day but considering how hard it was to get 5, I gave up for the time. I'm looking for a new doctor, one who actually knows something about the medical field.

Say you'll share with
me one
love, one lifetime . . .
Lead me, save me
from my solitude . . .

Say you want me
with you ,
here beside you . . .
Anywhere you go
let me go to . . .
Christine,
that's all I ask of . . .
