Anyone have any idea of a time frame for this to land in the UK, I understand America has full FDA approval now. Thanks

Does anyone else have any advice please. I’m going to hopefully see my GP tomorrow and want to have as much info as I can thanks.

Thank you for your reply. The issue I have is that (stupidly) I asked my DSN to refer me who in turn said the consultant would need to do this (thought it would be a quicker route than trying to get a GP appointment) So my consultant replied saying he had spoken to a consultant at the trust I...

Thank you

Hi I am looking for any help/info on changing trusts due to poor care and pump choices. I did ask my consultant to refer me but they have said that the trust I want to transfer to are under pressure in their pump clinic so it would be a long wait and therefore I will not benefit. I’m going to...

Anyone managed this I have just been refused a CGM due to not having 2 severe hypos and loosing my driving licence. This is ridiculous I have complications and this doesn’t seem to be enough if a cause.

Hi can I ask how you got funding for the sensors? I have just asked for funding due to complications but have been refused as I have not had 2 hypos resulting in loosing my driving licence Thanks

Hi Can you give me your experience of the 780g I have the choice to swap from Omnipod to it. The only thing that is tempting me is the partial loop availability with the guardian 4, however they won’t find me for the sensors.

Thank you all I am going to send my DSN an email over the weekend and see what they say. It’s absolutely ridiculous to go onto a new pump when I will gain no more benefit than my existing pump.

Hi Looking for advice please I am currently on the Omnipod and have been offered the Medtronic as a partial loop system to get better control but would have to self fund the guardian sensors which I believe are in the same price bracket as Dexcom. I can’t afford the sensors just wondered if...

Hi Has anyone been successful in swapping the Libre 2 to a CGM through their Diabetes team. Just seem to get fobbed off the time. The Libre is just not reliable for me. Thanks.

I would self fund the Dexcom but my trust do not support the tslim unfortunately

Sorry yes should have said I have been on the Omnipod for 4yrs and it’s time for me to change pumps if I want to so just looking for advice as my hospital only support 780g and Omnipod so my other question was can I change trusts to get more of a choice ‍♀️

So I am still sitting on the fence about pumps but I would really like one to close loop or as close as! from what I can gather you can have the 780g and guardian Omnipod + Dexcom+ orangelink not ideal as I’m not a tech person Dana RS + cams fx but my local hospital do not offer this one...
