Hi,
We live in the Borders of Scotland where there is currently no funding for an insulin pump for my 12 year old son but agree that he should have one.
We were going to purchase one privately but because Animas will only provide one, if the diabetes care team agree to look after the initial setup of the pump, which they are not prepared to do.
So, we are looking around to see what the alternative is. It was mentioned on this website that we can purchase pumps privately. Can anyone tell me who and how this can be done?
Choice of pump would be a luxury but more important is that he gets one.
Thanks,
Connal
