Hi
My daughter Rebecca was diagnosed 2 years ago with type 1. She was awarded high rate care in her first year and the year following was reduced to Middle rate care.
We were due for a renewal and I completed the forms as previous years and received a letter today that she was turned down totally. The decision maker did not even contact any medial professionals!! I have asked for a re consideration as my daughter still needs constant reminding to take her insulin and has difficulty working out her carbs due to her difficulty in understanding and the calculations. i also have to remind her ever night to take her 24 hour insulin.
Has anyone any previous experience or advice please.
