[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 1934659"] Re: question 3, means testing is not one of the criteria for qualifying for a Libre prescription so self funding [I]shouldn't[/I] affect your chance. However, I have tried to go for a half-way solution. My DSN is aware I have Libre but I explain I can only fund "occasional use". For me this is approximately 2 out of every 6 weeks. My logic is to use the Libre to tweak my insulin doses as it is not accurate enough to dose from. The doses should not vary so much I need to wear a Libre all the time. That is not to say, I would not appreciate full time Libring but there are advantages such as not getting too obsessed by the numbers, giving my arms rest-bite from the sticky stuff to which people build up a reaction and not relying on the Libre in case I can't get hold of them.
