Could you send to Dexcom for a free trial, and either use that for 10 days along with the Libre, or as the only cgm?

Apologies I obviously read it too quickly!

I think the difference is that in previous trials/patients they had to take immunosuppressant drugs for the rest of their lives, whereas this trial has a drug given once beside the islet cells.

Really sorry you've had/are having such an awful time @Nicola M Sending hugs and hope you start to feel better soon.

So sorry to hear that @becca59 It's always really hard losing a parent. I hope you enjoy your holiday.

Glad you got a response @agylli

I asked the receptionist, and she sent the practice manager a message, but nothing came of it.

You're lucky!! The practice manager at my surgery won't respond to letters or telephone calls to the surgery asking to make an appointment to speak to her.

Always good to read your posts @Tony337

I was the same nearly 60 years ago @Tony337 and also not getting the banana sandwich when everyone else did. I got cheese or cold meat if I was lucky!!

Another one using tubed Tandem, which has never leaked. Have you talked to your hospital team? Leaked insulin can be due to not rotating sites well, or pods becoming loose.

Not heard of that @lovinglife as I'm in a similar situation with all my nails.

Can you rub Vick on when the chilblains have split the skin @Outlier as I've got terrible ones on my hands.

It's the range my hospital team use.

Welcome to the forum @LBurt2001 Edited as posted before I'd finished - So sorry this has happened to you, and I hope you can find a solution.
