Recently been given a libre sensor kit by the hospital as I'm having issues not recognising hypos. Trouble is getting hold of the sensors. Can anyone tell me if they are available through the NHS yet and if not where and how can I get replacements.
 
They will be available on the NHS from November 2017 in theory. The thing is though your local CCG and GP will need to approve them and sadly they nay not do this. You can buy them from the ABBOTT WEBSITE
 
It's worth knowing that as a diabetic you can get VAT deducted from your sensor purchases. There's a claim/declaration form included in the web order process for you to complete.

You can also get free shipping using a monthly code (not sure what the October one is but I expect someone on here will have it) which reduces the cost into the £40s per sensor
