#T1Diabetes & "good"control (as dictated by HCP) involves: 8-10 glucose measurements Multiple insulin doses & adjustments Pre-attention to snacks, exercise Accurate carb counting Luck / skill / motivation Every day For the rest of their life Enable where YOU can Thank you

โ€œItโ€™s tricky to prescribe a CGMโ€ Howโ€™s this? Step 1: you take a prescription pad Step 2: you write the words down Step 3: you send it to the person with #T1D I work in the #NHS - full time clinician. Policy role is an extra Donโ€™t tell me it canโ€™t be done Easy as 1-2-3

The #NHS has really been caught on the hop by this bank holiday Caught between the dilemma of โ€œshowing respectโ€ and โ€œmaintaining service in background of backlogsโ€ Really caught.
