[QUOTE="Hamfanjan, post: 2269376, member: 523778"] My partner who has type 1 was sent a letter vua GP surgery to shield way back in March. About a month later sent another informing him it may have been a mistake ! Same day he had a letter from diabetes UK stating the vulnerability of diabetes. He disregarded the second letter from the surgery. He is protecting both of us as I have ME . But no one cares about that it seems. I wasn't allowed to speak to our GP had to deal with practice manager. She asked our dr where we stand with being vulnerable regarding CV. Apparently he said neither of us are any more vulnerable than anyone else with no underlying condition. And just to practice social distancing. Yeah right .I am always housebound anyway and my partner tends not to go very far at the best if times. So he will continue to be isolated for a bit longer yet. He also uses a CPAP machine at night for sleep apnoea . [/QUOTE]
