Hi don't really know how old this thread is?? But we (as in my 7 year old daughter) used the freestyle libre sensor and we have been using for over a year now! We had to get prescription from the nurse at first, then it was reviewed after 3 months then was added to her repeat prescriptions! We really rely on it now and still used it too! It's made life so much easier and her fingers aren't as sore from all the finger pricking! A big thumbs up!!Has any one had an assessment meeting with their hospital so they can get the sensors on prescription? I've got mine this week not sure what to expect.
Every type 1 in Wales gets this system. I got diagnosed six weeks ago and I’ve had the Libre system for a monthHas any one had an assessment meeting with their hospital so they can get the sensors on prescription? I've got mine this week not sure what to expect.
Uh nope. I have a couple of T1 Welsh friends who are not allowed the libre, ironically because their control is too good. They have been told that since their HbA1cs are well within limits there is no 'clinical need' for cgm.Every type 1 in Wales gets this system.
