After a few Blood tests over the last 4 months, I have been diagnosed with Type 2...I had my 1st proper visit to see the Diabetic nurse today. ..not really sure what I was expecting but I kinda feel like I've just been abandoned to get on with it..I explained I joined this site and have been reading about ppls experiences and she said not to bother, she's not indicated that there's a local group I can join, so what is the difference if I am a member here, surely it's all about support which quite clearly I won't get off her as she doesn't want to see me for 3 months...what if I have questions...? of course I'm worried and want help, I asked about seeing a dietician, to which she said there would be one present at the 'Desmond' course she's signing me up for...I feel like I'm stuck in Limbo......
