Made to measure/ prescription Level 2 compression stockings
Discussion
GF is tall and struggling to get decent compression stockings here in UK. She normally gets from Poland (about 50 quid a pop - they measure you and it takes a week)
She doesnt like off the shelf, squeezes in the wrong place
Is there anywhere in the UK you can get made to measure? Google is just bringing up either NICE articles (For clinicians) or websites that point you to getting a GP to measure/ design.
Anyone have expereice with this please?

Hi I am a retired Pharmacist. we used to measure patients for made to measure stockings on prescription.
GP could give NHS script and two stockings would be two charges. Ask at your local pharmacy, as I have been out of harness for a while now.
Have to say they are not the most attractive things.

I’d get in contact with daylong and see what’s the best option is if you want to buy rather than get a prescription.

Credalast, Sigvaris and mediven are the manufacturers I’ve seen most often. All have made to measure options.
