[QUOTE="Loliz, post: 1040374, member: 259710"] Hello, RuthW, thank you for replying. The deciding factor for the Dr recommending a transplant isn't the number or severity of my complications, but the number and severity of my hypos. Some time ago these became more numerous I had a series where I became unconscious and wasn't found, on two occasions for over 2 hours. I work from home and on my own a lot so this is a concern. The 640G is keeping me so much safer with the smart guard but the sensors are not infallible. Plus, funding is not a definite... we couldn't afford them and my funding is on a need basis which has to be asked for (begged for) each year. With the way things are going I can see it being withdrawn and that is scary. So it's complicated. [/QUOTE]
