Hi, I believe NICE guidelines for England & Wales are that every T1 should be able to choose between a Flash Glucose Monitor (FGM), such as the Freestyle Libre, or a Constant Glucose Monitor (CGM). Though some diabetes healthcare teams may have a different local policy.
Either mention it at your next diabetic check-up or give them a call.
I see no reason why your GP can’t just prescribe the Libre 2 it is on their prescription list, I would send in a request for them, if that fails you can mention NICE guidance, after that it would be getting a letter from your diabetic team. Good luck
I have T2 and my diabetic nurse prescribed mine and I share my results to her. Works very well and if my bloods keep going too high or too low she will adjust my medication
