[QUOTE="ally1, post: 1508602, member: 110790"] A quick update on me. I saw my psych today. I went in more about my bipolar as I presumed it was that what bringing me down. Firstly the psych came out to meet, upon walking towards his office, my left leg is now numb up to my knee with throbbing pain. My left leg gave way and I fell to the floor. I felt a right plonker. Once inside his office, we briefly spoke about my bipolar to which, psych said there was no marked decline. We got onto the fall, this got me onto my t2, explained again about the neuropathy. Which he knew about from my last visit. This led me to open up about my levels rising, though not hugely. My constant thirst, worse in the mornings. Psych then got onto his letter to my gp regarding more request blood tests rather then the one a year test. Also he wrote about how he felt that I should be issued with test strips because of the queapine. I explained nothing has been done regarding that letter. He feels that the way I am feeling is more diabetic related rather then the bipolar. I also explained over the past few weeks that my appetite has increased, bs levels have increased, bad thirst especially in the mornings. Plus what he witnessed walking to his office. He is extremely concerned because nothing has been done regarding his letter, in his words, as he hadn,t heard from me, he presumed that I was getting now getting regulations bs blood tests and receiving test strips on prescriptions. Also that with the amount of numbness now in my left leg that it's a worry. Psych also feels that I should be referred to either a neurologist or at least the diabetic clinic at the hospital as he clearly think my victoza and metformin is not doing their job. I also mentioned that I wrote to my gp and the surgery's practise manager and as yet had no response. Psych has reassured me that he will write a letter to my gp explaining about the fall and he feels that I need to be closely monitored as clearly I am alot worse then they realise. [/QUOTE]
