[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 337324, member: 17713"] Not allowed to give name of hosp.. But I guarantee that they told me to do 4 tests a day...and previously at all my other hospitals my Dsn wrote to my gp requesting that they provided 300 strips a month.. And the gos did as instructed. The dsn at this new hospital didnt on my 1st requst write to my new gp. On my 2nd request she stated that she could not tell the gps to give me x amount of strips as they have budgets to keep within.. The only thing she could do was to request that he supports my pump usage.... In fact I went to gp practice the next day and the dsn there had no hesitation over 300 strips.. At my previous gps it has always been a battle to get strips.. I have moved a fair few times!!-lol!!.. So I was trying to pre-empt and merely asking for support from hosp dsn going from previous experience. I have had a cgm, but it wasnt giving accurate recordings compared to my pump.. So Until the cgm company inform me how they are going to resolve the matter of the inaccuracies I will not use the cgm... [/QUOTE]
