FINALLY GETTING A PUMP

[IceLover]

Somehow i finally got the courage to ask my nurse about pumps and i had a prepump assesment in the beginning of january. Also im starting on it next month on feb 10th. SOOOOO EXICTED!!!!!!
Its quite weird how people told me it might take like 3 month in total but im getting it in a few weeks time so my process took around a month
How long did your process take?

Great news! What pump are you getting?

That is great news @IceLover

Cellnovo and i decided on this pump due to it being tubeless and all the past problems have been fixed

From when I first really really started begging for one it was a few months - I think I asked in the spring, then my team applied for funding in the July, and I started pumping mid October that year.

My life now is unrecognisably amazeballs!

Cool Do let us know how you get on with it. Not so many people have that pump so your views will be very helpful.

I realised I forgot to answer your question! I think it was approx two months from approval to me getting my pump.

@IceLover - Glad to hear you got yours sorted so quickly. I asked about going on it last year and the next thing I received was a letter from my hospital saying 'sorry you missed your appointment'! They hadn't actually sent me a letter asking me to attend the first meeting so wasn't a great start. Nevertheless I have asked again about it (Nov 2016) and am back on the list to have my assessment. Hopefully this time they will actually send me the letter! Good luck with yours, I'm excited to get mine one day
XOXO

I've just been told that I could be getting mine next week! I'm getting the omnipod
Also I've never heard of the cellnovo but looks pretty good too!

It's horrid waiting! I've been waiting since June!! The big day is hopefully Monday next week.

Time will fly past for you I'm sure, keep everything crossed you won't e delayed further.
