[QUOTE="sicko666, post: 556309, member: 19942"] Thanks for replying,lol, sorry if i sounded a bit angry it was the week i found out CGM's are no longer funded in Havering,and only 1 pump a month let alone the fact your case is assesed by bean counters and not doctors even when the consultant said i should get one, add the fact you have to go through a DAFNE and blood testing 5 times a day before your allowed to apply for a pump and if you do this they then say because you have done the BG testing you cant be needle phobic so dont qualify for a pump being needle phobic! Anyone else here see the way this has been structured so no-one will be eliagible for a pump without them breaking any NICE guidlines!!!!!! It always supprises me how much of a "postcode lottery" there is in the NHS, if i lived in birmingham i could get a pump AND a L-port so i would never need inject with a needle again! Lol anyone here feel like robbing a few banks so we can go private lol!!!!!!!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
