    Monitoring type 2 gp note on prescription

    Ask an AI to research online for NICE guide lines about Mellitus and testing strips and then to write a letter to you GP stating why it is beneficial for your overall health to regularly test according to N.I.C.E. guidelines. I have had chemists take away meds and testing strips due to costs...

    BOTS

    I think most people will recognise something from the article.. its been a long time since people actually got to see a GP , let alone talk to one. Nowadays you get to talk to a prescribing nurse who hasn't read any of your records and has her own opinions.. I'm on semaglutide/GLP1 and...

    Diabetic Neuropathy (Left Foot)

    Are you taking Metformin? Max dose long term? I take methyl B12 from piping rock every day. Another thing that helped me is HBOT - Hyper Baric Oxyen Treatment.

Slow Release.. might help but Metformin Gush does exist, despite GPs saying it doesn't. the tablets sometimes group together in the gut and metformin irritates the gut lining... so the body reacts by dumping fluid and glucose into the gut to shift the irritant. uh...

    MILK and Diabetes

    I found this to be true using testing strips. Told my diabetic nurse and asked what I should drink and she said to drink less and have semi or skimmed. Her main advice is to eat lots of veg and have smaller meals more often. In my experience of nurses and GPs they are in the dark ages and are...

    MILK and Diabetes
