[QUOTE="SpeakN, post: 2026580, member: 428992"] Update on my issue. I've spoken to my GP again and been through the NHS document including the section that states that your GP should issue the Libre if your diabetes is looked looked after by your GP. She doesn't dispute what the document says or that I meet the criteria. She agreed to discuss it with the other partners at the practice. I've now received a phone call from the practice administrator to inform me that the GPs won't be issuing the Libre and the only option is to be referred for an appointment at the hospital. I asked if I could have a call or another appointment to discuss with the GP again but this has been ignored so I'm now left waiting for a hospital appointment. This is very frustrating because the hospital know nothing about me - the last time I was looked after by the hospital was 25 years ago when I turned 18. I assume it will also takes a long time to get an appointment given that its not an urgent issue. [/QUOTE]
