Snodger, I doubt it was your second point, I was at my wits end so politely asked her to play a game with me . I played the game of devil's advocate ....I asked her what she was going to do in 4hrs time, 8hrs time, tonight and then Saturday morning at 08.30am. On each occasion she couldn't...

Borofergie Just read your reply again.. I standby by what I have written, the few who do not or refuse to adjust make the rest of us have problems and the jumping through government hoops even more difficult. Like it or not, it's not harsh it's what I see, read about, or indeed have witnessed...

Borofergie You miss my point completely...Conscription???? ...As for obesity, yes I do see it the majority of time s I go to the clinic..FACT...(I'm not sterotyping ALL).. I do tend to talk to others I encounter, in the clinic, hospital etc, that may surprise you, invariably their condition...

What are the chances of getting more diabetic nurses who actually are diabetic??? DISCUSS - Fed up with nurses who keep giving me the wrong information!! I could relate to someone who had the condition better than someone lamenting me ever time I go for an appointment

Yes your probably right. I've lost count of how many times I have been given the wrong advice..After 5 yrs of this awful disease, yep it's ruined my life, career, future earning potential and almost my marriage. I have to put up with a sub standard, "sorry we're short staffed again today", "the...

I always dread going for my appointments/checkups and all the Gestapo type questioning...That was until my last appointment....Going on holiday for me is a nightmare. My readings ALWAYS fluctuate due to time differences/available food/heat etc and generally I never get any understanding from my...

Hey Leyland, Nice to hear from you. Thanks for the advice. I will certainly keep my eye on this development. It would open up so many job opportunities for me, that is for sure... I just don't understand why everyone who is diabetic gets tarred with the same brush, yet others,who do flout the...
