[QUOTE="Sid Bonkers, post: 401968, member: 19121"] Hi James, sorry to hear about your recent problems and the fact that you having to go onto insulin. Regarding your appointment at the hospital try to look on it as a positive step as hospital diabetes clinics are staffed by far more knowledgeable and highly trained diabetes specialists than those found at even the best GP surgery. I was placed under the care of a hospital diabetes unit and put on insulin after I was initially diagnosed T2 and although very scared and frightened I soon got used to the multi daily injection (MDI) routine they put me on and I gained good control very quickly with their help :thumbup: I dont know anything about the HGV side of things other than what Ive read on here and that seems to suggest that you can request to have your licence restored but you will need 6 months worth of regular meter reading data indicating that your control is good and that you are have not suffered any serious hypos. Hopefully someone who has gone through this process will be able to give you more advice. Good luck and I hope things work out well for you :thumbup: [/QUOTE]
