[QUOTE="Flowerpot, post: 871924, member: 47217"] Applying for CGM funding is a real minefield I agree and doesn't come without associated problems. I started to go down the pancreas/islet cell transplant route before being granted funding for CGM due to no hypo awareness and many episodes of going unconscious when and wherever with zero warning, requiring third party/paramedic assistance.I had already had my driving licence revoked due to 80% sight loss from proliferative retinopathy so for me that bridge had already been crossed but I know the other funded people at my pump clinic have had their licences revoked. I have only managed 6 days with the new Guardian transmitter provided with the 640g but will continue to try and extend the sensor life by disconnecting the transmitter - without hopefully dislodging the sensor- and trying to restart the old sensor.
