Hi
I'm an insulin dependent type1 diabetic living in Scotland and our government has announced they are making an extra £1million available for insulin pumps and I have registered an interest in getting one. I know they can be very difficult to get right in the beginning and are not always the best way to go. So I was wondering whether trying to get a CGM instead would be more beneficial? Has anyone tried both? My Hba1c is steady at around 66, which I know is too high, and I rarely suffer from hypos. I would like to get my control a bit tighter.
