[QUOTE="kazam401, post: 1945736, member: 248034"] Many thanks for all the replies - they have given me a lot to think about & some inroads into what would be my best way forward. I see my specialist in April so if I haven't started self funding by then I will again make the request. I think work funding is unfortunately out of the question but I will ask when back on day shift in the new year, they can only say no. In the last 12 months I have been in touch with my MP & had a reply regarding this issue, but it was a bit of a generic email that said nothing of any interest or hope (typical politicians talk). Have had to re register on the Abbot site as there seems to be a waiting list for sensors for self funders, which just adds to the frustration. Had some bad thought about this self funding, demanding more test strips from my GP - Accu Chek Mobile cassettes have a value on certain selling web sites, (it was just a though in an angry moment & not something I would actually do) but I will be demanding another 50 strips as have read the NHS's own "Guidelines for Home Monitoring of Blood Glucose Levels" & they are short changing me on there recommendations. Again many thanks for the replies I will try & add to this post if anything changes. [/QUOTE]
