A further 660 insulin pumps will be available for people with type 1 diabetes in Scotland as part of a ?3 million investment announced today.

The funding will be used to purchase the small medical devices that attach to a person?s body and administer the correct amount of insulin needed, removing the need for insulin injections and making the condition easier to manage.

A dedicated insulin pump support team will also support NHS staff around the country to widen access to the pumps.

About ruddy time.
 
At last we have some good news, lets hope that's just the start.
 
That is great news 🙂

I was told I was suitable for a pump at the beginning of this year and this news makes me feel like a little kid who wants it now! lol

But I'll wait my turn which will hopefully be quicker than predicted thanks to this.
