[QUOTE="deniski, post: 1621750, member: 452433"] I' m up in Lothian near Edinburgh and the CCG have not approved the Libre yet. My Diabetic clinic said that maybe in the New Year. They will save the NHS a huge amount, my sister is a district nurse and 7 out of 10 of her house calls is to do blood tests, each house call is billed at £80 ! I've been a type 1 for 54 years, gone from urine testing ( 5 drops of urine in a test tube, 10 drops of water, drop in a fizzy pill and wait 10 seconds, then one read the colour in the tube against a chart, dark red was sugary, green was low), to blood testing ( much more accurate) and now to digital skin readouts...........Amazing ! But they still haven't discovered a cure......................:( [/QUOTE]
