[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1451177, member: 30007"] You'll get very little assistance if you focus on QoL for an attempt to get CGM on the NHS. It's really all about cost. The NHS has to cost CGM at the recommended lifespan of the components, so this means that you are talking around £2,500 annually (which varies by system, but not much). The other thing is that now, if you are basing it on hypos, you are unlikely to be given a choice of CGM. The most likely response from the NHS will be the 640G with Enlites due to SmartGuard and Predictive low glucose suspend, which has been proven to be effective for many (if not all). So while it's possible, be aware that what you ask for and how you ask for it will affect the response. [/QUOTE]
