Thanks I sent Input a email and they got back and asked for my phone number and I sent it .
A very nice lady phoned yesterday Lesley was her name we talked for about 2 hours and she gave me lots to take back to them and what to ask, very good info. She said like you lot just keep phoneing and they will get that sick off me it might push them to give the pump sooner than next year.
She said that there was no need for the CBM and that could just be there way of stalling because they gave the other pump away and have to order another one but just to keep pestering them every week untill I get an appointment, and to keep saying that the CBM would be better put on when I am on the pump not before.
And as for just 6 months to see how things change then if they want it back is it as a punishment or for some medical reason as they carnt just take it back they will have to have some other medical help for me so got that to think about and will just have to see how it goes ill let you know thanks for the link🙂

Yes she is I have got some good info for when I do get back to the hospital and what to say to them.
Feel a bit better about it all now know its going to take a long time but Ill hang in there and do everything I can to get this pump I know its not a quick fix thing and I will still have problums but Im willing to do anything. Thanks everybody for your help😎
 
Great news Carol, I hope that they realise that it's no use stalling and just get you your pump! 🙂
 
Good! Pleased you got help and are now feeling a lot more postive about it.

Knowledge is power - if you know you have the correct info instead of thinking that doesn't sound right to me but I don't know - it enables you to speak with autority instead of just them doing it to you!

keep us posted please!

Yesa thanks but I think its going to be next year now before I get back to see them as the clinics are only once a month but ill just keep phoneing and maybe they will get sick and see me sooner
