Hi All,
My 13 year old daughter was diagnosed with type 1, 8 weeks ago. She was ok with injecting until the last week or so. She would like a pump. I spoke to the diabetes team at the hospital to ask about getting a pump. I felt like I was being fobbed off. Are these pump not freely available? I would have thought that in 2016 and with advances in technology that these things would be available. Do I have to jump through hoops???? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
