Message: <blockquote data-quote="paulliljeros" data-source="post: 1232290" data-attributes="member: 220050"><p>I think CGM is the best thing that has happened to my diabetes in 30 years BUT I am concerned that the anecdotal stories we have about how amazing CGM is at the moment is skewed.  I am generalising, but I think it's fair to say that almost every single user of CGM is funding the £1,000's themselves.  They therefore have vested interest in getting the most out of the sensors and the data, and as a general rule, only those that are truly interested in improving their control and health are using it.  Once they are given for free, I fear the wastage, and personal investment in benefitting from the CGM technology will drop enormously, and so we need refine what we are actually asking for from the NHS, and more importantly, how we are going to ensure it is not wasted.</p></blockquote><p></p>
