[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 1648830, member: 17713"] Some GPs (ie Peterborough) do not refer T1's to hospital unless they request it and even then the patient may have to show log books etc to get a referral.... You may have to insist, I hope not, but just be prepared. There are huge differences in care between hospirals and GPs. You may be offered a chance of a Libre that you wouldnt get from a GP, if you had troubles with basals you could be iffered different ones that GPs really arent up to date with. You need and are entitled to hospital consultant if you request it. There are other adnances like insulin pumps etc that GPs cannot offer you... Even meters.... GPs are less likely to offer you the aviva expert and will just go for basic cheapest they can offer you.. Do log everything and get facts behind you to show.. [/QUOTE]
