Last week I started using the i-Port advance for the first time. On the first day I saw an immediate improvement in my blood sugars. Prior to this, I was using the TickleFlex as an aid to help me inject.

However, now using the i-Port advance I’ve come to the conclusion I wasn’t getting my full dose of insulin with the TickleFlex.

My DN has said they aren’t available via prescription, yet the company I purchased them from has said that isn’t the case. I’m now not holding my breath I’ll be able to have them on prescription .

Therefore, I’m now wondering does anybody know of ways of having funding for such devices? (Not provided by nhs).

Thanks in advance for responses.
