[QUOTE="SKB_9, post: 2567918, member: 426767"] I just finished 8 sessions with the psychologist attached to my diabetes team, it was great and I strongly recommend. If there is an option of being referred to Kings then push push push for it, not referring you needs a very good reason as you’re so clearly asking for it, and make it clear in the referral that you need treatment for burnout/diabetes distress to negate the issue about having had “too much therapy” (although this can be a valid comment but worth pursuing a specialist referral). If they won’t refer you after having said it’s an option then please make a complaint because you should be offered this life saving care. (I’m a psychologist in the nhs and feel strongly about this can you tell!) the pump I am much less knowledgeable about although worth knowing that I moved from one hospital to another and my first hospital told me I didn’t qualify for a pump and the second one couldn’t get me on a pump fast enough so is it worth changing hospitals?
