Refund Policy?
Question:
From another Martin, Original packaging yes but surely some of us have been in and out of the wrapping so often it is now damaged and unusable and what about the security tags that were fitted, I know I have lost mine along with my marbles. Martin Perman

Yes that’s right, I’ve decided that I don’t particularly like this DM condition, and that it isn’t operating as I expected it would. Therefore I would be grateful if someone could explain the NHS’s refund policy on this item!
Unfortunately, you are likely to get a response along these lines… Dear Mr Martin, In response to your letter of 14th March, may I remind you that the purpose of Type 2 diabetes mellitus is to completely derange your metabolism, and thereby to generally screw up your life. From your letter, it would appear that your unit is performing this function admirably, and we are therefore unable to offer a refund. Yours, etc.

ROFLOL, but that reminds me! Take one banana, split it down it’s length to about three quarters depth. Now fill split with Cadbury’s Chocolate Buttons and then wrap banana in foil. Next, place on hot Bar-B-Q for about 10 minuets. Now try to eat hot, sticky, chocolate object whilst trying not to burn fingers, tongue or throat! Hmmm, lovely{:-o — Philip Martin.

Yes that’s right, I’ve decided that I don’t particularly like this DM condition, and that it isn’t operating as I expected it would. Therefore I would be grateful if someone could explain the NHS’s refund policy on this item! A draft text to the relevant body is included:- Dear Sirs, With reference to the acquired condition know as T2 Diabetes Meltis, I have several complaints. In particular I sight the events of yesterday when, being 7.6 of the blood test on arising at 7:00 of the clock, I administered a reduced 8 units of the sub product Actrapid, thereafter consuming my normal breakfast nourishment. By 10:30 of the clock I felt unwell and another blood test returned the unsatisfactory result of 3.8. An intermediate remedy of two glucose tablets and a large banana was used to effect a return to normality. At the following lunch period, this being 12:00 of the clock, a further reduced volume of 8 units of the above sub product were used. The blood test at this time returned a value of 6.2. Nourishment consisted of one salad and bacon baguette, with a cup of black coffee. Unfortunately by 2 :30 of the clock, we began to feel extremely unwell again and to my horror a blood test returned a very unacceptable 3.1 reading. This obviously caused the usual trauma associated with this level (or lack of) blood sugar, and required the administration of a further 4 glucose tablets and another baguette stuffed with some strange tasting grated cheese. I might add at this point that the baguette was not buttered, which made its consumption even more of a chore. Today now marks the time of the year when I celebrate (I should be so lucky) having survived 52 years of this condition know as ‘Life’. It is therefore my intention to stuff myself silly today, including one of these ‘eat as much as you can for a fixed price’ Chinese meals tonight, most probably followed by several large volumes of the beverage know as ‘Bitter’. I trust this will not invalidate any warrantees or usage conditions related to the usage of the DM condition as supplied, and look forward to your earliest response. — Philip Martin.
