[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2139087, member: 365308"] On a practical note he could choose to self fund for 2 weeks (£58) to get his background insulin correct. You are very kind to think of solutions to his diabetic burn out! Currently only 20% of type 1s are budgeted to get the fsl and they want to ensure that anyone who does get it is clued up on carb counting and committed to reducing hypos and/or improving their ba1c so there are a number of hoops to jump through. Many consultants think fsl is a 'no brainer' for type 1s so I think once the choices and costs of cgms start to decline we will get more of them out there. Re its' application for type 2s, I agree that it would be a great tool but in my low carb walking group for diabetics we cannot get a sympathetic GP to prescribe testing strips for those not on insulin/sulphonyureas without going against her CCG rules so it is going to take more low carbers on sites like this to keep banging that drum and curing themselves!
