Good afternoon: My 3 -year -old son debuted with DM1 five months ago, now he is with NPH 1.5 dose and Novorapid 1. At first we pricked him "the bee in his fingers" more than 20 times a day, since he had asymptomatic sugar drops (up to 23 glucose). "We have the Free Style system and we are delighted, because it avoids us to prick him so many times, although we know that above 250 or below 60, the system is not reliable. I would like to ask you several questions; -Does any financing by the Social Security for the Free Style system? -What do you know about inhaled insulin? -When did your children debut, did they do it with a 6.0 ketoacidosis and kussmaul syndrome? My son was in the pediatrician one day before debuting and diagnosis pharynghamigdalitis and 20 hours later I enter very serious in the hospital, I have denounced it by medical negligence Thank you and a lot of encouragement. Our triumph will be that of our children.

@Elenax80.There is currently no financing of any continuous glucose monitoring system through Social Security.Nor of the free.In some counity and in very specific cases, if they leave any temporarily. Inhaled insulin is not yet approved in Spain.There was talk in another thread that may be close to arriving, but from what was commented they are cartridges that seem difficult to manage a precise dose ... This topic is not clear.
Hi Elenax80, There is no financing by social security for free freestyle.If you are interested there is a signature collection at Change.org requesting it. Although I am quite skeptical about the effectiveness of these campaigns, it costs very little to try.
