CGMS in the UK?

Are there any CGMS systems available in the UK? Not just for clinic purposes (where you just wear it for three days for the nurse to see) but for everyday personal use.

I know you guys in the US can get them but i've not seen any UK people talking about this... I often get the "testing burnout" phase, and i think that could be resolved with CGMS.

I remember asking my practice nurse about CGMS when i first met with her and she didn't seem to know a great deal.

So i just wondering if anyone know if it's available in the UK and/or on the NHS? if not on the NHS can you buy them and get supplies on the NHS?
