Hi there pumpers
brief intro on this topic
diabetic Type 1 for 42 years 11 months
novorapid and lantus
A1c's over the last 5 years between 5.7% and 6.1%
impaired hypo awareness hence put forward for a pump by my endocrinologist august 2014
appt with DSN to determine suitability / commitment oct 2014
5 appts with dietician from december 2014 to february 2015 -- approved for carb counting
first appointment with pump endo on july 17, 2015
so my question is this -- After what seems to me a lengthy wait for this appointment what can I expect ?
more questions about my suitability ? a quick chat and be offered a next appt to get things moving ?
getting told the waiting list is still 2 years ??
getting quite nervous and just wondering if others have any insight into this "first appointment" with pump consultant
thanks for reading
