    Freestyle libre waiting time

    Thank you for all your replies [emoji106] Bit of back ground to my question. Last month after many years of asking about funding for Dexcom or the freestyle libre my Consultant agreed he could get me started on the freestyle straight away, no problem. He also hoped to set up the Dexcom G6...

    Freestyle libre waiting time

    Hi, Is there a certain time frame I'm looking at from when my consultant / DSN agreed to the freestyle libre to actually receiving it. Or is it just a case of them adding it to my prescription to be available straight away? Thanks.

    I have heard of Fiasp. I'm currently using a Tandem T:slim X2 pump and will see if Fiasp is ok to use.

    Refused CGM funding [emoji31]

    Hi philchap1 I congratulate you on your 52 years living with diabetes. I'm only currently in my 29th year. Since my appointment last week I have looked closer at my G5 reports (self funder) and diasend reports ( I currently use an Animas pump) and can see that I only really check my sugars...

    Refused CGM funding [emoji31]

    helensaramay I wasn't asking for it as a reward. I was asking for it to help continue my good health (which I have worked hard at to achieve) and to prevent complications from being a burden on the NHS. Being pro-active on instead of reactive.
