Went to my doctors for my first month review of medication. I am on Metformin twice a day. Told her I was having problems with pins and needles, constipation and ED. I also asked about a blood glucose monitor. I was told I didn't need to check my bloods they would do it with 3 monthly blood tests. I was prescribed the blue pill of ED and given a flu jab. I came away from the surgery more confused than when I went in. My doctor seems to think having type 2 is not an issue. It's not an illness but a lifestyle change. My partner was furious and told me to register with a different doctor. 1 Month in and I can safely say my treatment sucks more than a dyson.
