Libre help?

[Emmanuelhadi]

Can anyone in UK help me buy freestyle libre for my 5 years old daughter? I am from Indonesia, i cant buy the device. She has been 2 years with type 1, and we are tired of finger pricking.
Or anyone has any comments or tips of other device beside the freestyle libre for the non invasive instrument? Pls help and thank u guys.
And also I am new here in this forum. I have been to the freestyle website and they won't let me buy without the UK address.that is my main reason to come to this forum, if anyone here kind enough to help me get the devise ship to my country.

@Emmanuelhadi Have you tried contacting other people with diabetes in Indonesia to see what they do?

Even if you had a Libre for your daughter, you would still have to buy sensors, so it would be an ongoing difficulty.

What blood glucose testing meter are you using? Would a change of meter help with the blood tests? My current meter is good and has a finger pricking device that is very comfortable.

I have seen the website and they advertise that we no longer to keep finger pricking, just scan the device. So it will be a great advantage for Her life. As a parents, it's hard to deal with the needle 5-6 times a day. I know everybody is having the same routine or worse.

Yes, I am planning to get a partnership who would help me buy and ship the sensors for me continually, and of course in greater price than bought from the company. I am willing to pay more, and how we can deal 'business'. For now, it's just for my daughter personal use.

I know there is omnipod which I can get in us, but that's bigger device. And I don't think omnipod fit my daughter arm.

Life is very complicated.
