[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 1580549, member: 17713"] First off... Pumps are not life savers (speaking as someone that used one brilliantly from 2010 for 5 years until my skin rejected cannulas). They are a new gadget that can help people. They are not life savers. You concentrate on necessity of choice of pumps... well, other decisions for other illnesses vary by CCG. I pay £110 a month for lidocaine patches for my chest after radiotherapy damage) that other ladies get free. I have a funded CGM though that others can't get. I had to fight 18 months and 3 hospitals to get my 2nd "healthy" breast removed. Other ladies don't AND it turned out it wasnt healthy. Have you and all the persons moaning about cellnovo actually reported EVERY failure detail to MHRA/Gov.UK website?? 99% of patients do not report failures... are you any different? If people reported failures corectly the NHS and Companys would have to review their products. They dont go on the word of one person. I had cannula failures on my first pump and immediately reported to MHRA. Most people on thiis website didnt. Some didnt believe the cannulas were faulty. They were withdrawn by Accuchek worldwide though. If everry person reported failures correctly then the Manufacturer would have to provide answrs and withdrawals if necessary... [/QUOTE]
