Thank you very much Cumberland for your advice and nice welcome.
I thought I would send you an update after my phone appointment with the Diabetic Nurse. She was very nice but doesn't have any home visit appointments until 27th March, so she is sending me some info so I can look at possibly having injections, looking at non insulin first. If she has any home visits available, I'll get it.
Sadly, my agoraphobia has stopped me attending the surgery for several years and the thought of it, brings on panic attacks.
Until the home visit, I am to stay on Metformin and Sitagliptin. Thanks again. xx
Hi honey- welcome to the forum! Check out this thread, too - http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/category/emotional-and-mental-health.74/
There are some lovely supportive people who would be happy to hear from you and may be able to relate to your agoraphobia. Keep sharing! Big hugs x
