If you are self funding then it is up to you how you use or don't use your Libre but I expect if you are getting on the NHS they have to be sure you are using it to good effect otherwise it is a waste when funding issues are why many people are struggling to get them funded.
They knew I was having a break before. They agreed to this. This praticksrvwas one I picked up from the hostpal.

It can't use it to good effect because of all the issues I had with it.

But i do not have to declare anything if i dont want to. if you do they
Also try talking to workmates and explain what BCG means and likely impacts. I found most people are very interested and in some cases more interested than me. It can reassure both ways that they know you unlikely to go "wibble" on them but also if you do they know what to look for and how to best help you if needed.
Hope this helps new to diabetes and even newer to this forum

Oh dear, what medication did they give you. As it may take a little while to work.
It's more the fact it just keeps getting worse. It's another call to 111 last night. I'm trying to be persist that my doctors will do a scan sooner rather than later.
