I am needle phobic,NEED to go onto a pump because of my eyes,have epilepsy which is triggered by low BG and been told by Havering Health Care "We dont do CGM's", i looked into getting a second hand CGM BUT the supplies for a year equal £2500+ and i only get £3500 a year total income........Sorry, just am so annoyed,one ijection a day, two injections a day,two jet injections a day (NO needles! ), at the moment 4 jet injections a day because they redesined the bloody injector making it too small,hopeing to go onto inhaled insulin but never got the chance, NOW been told i have to go onto 4 injections plus 4 BG needles ( thats 8 needles a day for a needle phobic!!!! )......Sorry again,just angry,if they sacked the usless consultants and diabetic staff and paid me dirrectly for my own care i could afford a CGM AND Inport the inhaled insulin or go onto a pump thats 1-2 needles a day NOT 8+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lol sorry again just ranting because the NHS it seems just want to continue to increase my pain and suffering instead of reducing it!</blockquote>
