You are aware, I hope,
@Goodlucktrev, that the government will point you at the previous response to a petition for CGM on the NHS, here:
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/151064 and
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/107435 and always responds to these petitions in the same way, namely that the government does not decide on policy relating to use of CGM, NICE does.
Secondly, your petition is poor. It doesn't reference recent studies that demonstrate the benefits that clinical studies have shown (search for DIAMOND and GOLD studies), plus we also have data from those who pay for CGM telling us what they think (
here).
Whilst I agree that I'd like CGM paid for by the NHS, I'd prefer that those who are not the noisy 5% on Social Media received education and training simply into how to use insulin more effectively and how to carb count. This would have a greater impact on complication levels. CGM is not a panacea. It requires almost as much training as DAFNE for the majority of T1s, especially in the realm of how to use it to live better. It is expensive and needs people to want to use it. Let's change that first, before we start trying to give it out to everyone.
So no. I won't sign the petition.
