Can I ask how difficult it has been for people to get a pump?
I've been trying for some time now. My nurses say I should be able to and I saw my consultant this time last year she put me forward for an assessment. Only a couple of months ago I found out this had never been put through by mistake and my nurse says I need to wait until my next consultant appointment to speak to her again! They have sent me 2 appointments and then sent me cancellation letters saying they will send through new appointments but they haven't. That's over a year I've been waiting so far I hassle my nurse but it never gets anywhere. I have done dafne and keep very detailed food and insulin diaries and my blood sugars still have a mind of their own so I really feel I would benefit. It's getting really frustrating
