One year on from diagnosis and still highly motivated having lost a significant amount of weight and reversed my diabetes and transformed my lifestyle I'm finding that the surgery staff are more of an obstacle in my pursuit of a healthy lifestyle.
6 weeks on and 2 blood tests later the receptionist still won't give me my hba1c number ( everything's normal, bye then - she said over the phone) and suggested I make a GP appointment- which now takes a week due to the size of the patient list. I wasn't about to waste the GP's time like that.
Anyway, I don't like moaning - I've got my health to look out for SO, can we get our bloods checked privately and how much are we looking at?
Also, am I being too harsh on a busy surgery?
