Spike facebook forum advises rework now done and its in test prior to relaunch. Thanks a lot Apple for revoking Spike certs.:mad:

Thanks for the response. Comforting to know the 670G will likely be the replacement. I can then argue the toss about sensor funding. Cheers

£275 ex VAT for pack of 5, £525 ex VAT pack of 10 from Medtronic. They have self funded packages as well. from Medtronic The Complete Package is for anyone using sensors all of the time If you commit to ordering sensors for a year then you can order your sensors using a discount special code...

Hi Are you with Greater Glasgow HC and is the 670G on NHS? My 640G is due replacement Nov 2019 (although I believe the 3 year gets stretched to 4) and I am hoping they will replace with 670G by then. I am on libre as well but would happily give that up in favour of Enlite sensors, even if it...

I am having discussions with first aiders at work re storage and potential administration of Glucagon in severe hypo cases (myself and two other T1's who work in the office. diabetes.co.uk article on Glucagon clearly states How to store glucagon Glucagon should be stored at room temperature...

I would agree with this. I used it for a good few years before I got a pump recently. If you change pen type insulcheck will send you new adapters free of charge. One big advantage is that it has a replicable battery. Als o found excellent customer service when battery cover clip broke. 2 sent...

Spideog is right - T1's don't just use sugary drinks for Hypo's. I self fund Libre and get VAT exemption on sensors. Perhaps we should petition to get Sugar tax relief on Glucojuice (25g per 100ml), although as someone said, if you are having so many hypos that the tax will significantly impact...

Almost 2 months later and no improvement. Now seen the consultant again and going through a repeat vitrectomy 22/9 to clean out the "mucky puddle" as he described it and probable laser treatment. Fingers crossed. @nigelho. Hope you get the cataract sorted out. I believe it's classed as a...

Hope it went well and you get no complications.

Further Update - all was going really well, had driving standard vision without need for glasses and visited optician 22/7 to get new prescription for reading. Could read finest of print with corrective lenses then used the pressure test gadget which emits a puff of air and...........bleed. Now...

I too registered mid February and was able to order 23rd June so yes it seems about 4 months. Put 1st sensor on about 3 hrs ago now and already reading well I.e agreeing within 0.4 with both libre blood test and neo blood test. Can't wait to see overnight results.

UPDATE - had the procedure last Wednesday and went very well. Just under a week and air bubble has now dissipated. Couldn't believe how quick and painless the procedure was. Instruments inserted via three small ports the size of pinheads. The difference is fantastic. Look after yourselves and...

I know it's hard but you just need to stand up to this. Some years ago I worked for a company and one of the directors said to me in the canteen in front of the other staff that he found it offensive that I injected (discreetly with a pen). I stood up and asked the 6 or so colleagues in the room...

In a way happy to hear I am not alone but at the same time sad of the apparent lack of treatments in most cases. Suppose it depends on degree of vision being affected. I can't read the large letter on eye chart. Thanks for all the good wishes for tomorrow and I hope it Spurs some to question...

I have been type 1 for almost 30 years now and thankfully have had no significant complications to date, although I confess my control has not been the best over recent years. That aside, I developed a significant floater in my right eye about 2 years ago. I was told by my hospital...
