[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1432979, member: 94045"] Just one piece of info. Type 2's not on insulin are normally told not to self test with all kinds of different "reasons" given. (Excuses not to prescribe them due to cost is the real reason). Very few T2s not on insulin or strong drugs are prescribed meters. For this reason I'm not sure GP surgeries would allow such posters. I could be wrong. You also have to remember that the DVLA won't accept readings from continuous glucose monitors, so insulin users must still do the finger prick tests by law before they drive and 2 hourly during long drives. So in these cases any CGM won't replace finger pricking. I have seen the Abbott Libre advertised on TV and on Facebook and Skype with links to their own website. [/QUOTE]
