    Podiatry Concerns

    I suppose that because my BG has been the same since I was diagnosed over three years ago, I am not considered serious. Such is life.

    Podiatry Concerns

    Thanks for the replies, I feel that I don't mind paying for my treatment but I do know two individuals who did not look after their health and therefore ended up on insulin, (I would prefer to walk on hot coals than have to inject insulin) and subsequently...

    Podiatry Concerns

    I asked my diabetic nurse if I could be referred to the diabetic foot care team about a year ago because I needed my very hard toenails cut and my feet have the once over by the specialist to check that all was well. She warned me that they were cutting down on referrals and I may not get to see...

    Dieticians

    Thanks for all the replies and as I thought most of you that did get to see a dietician are none the wiser. I didn't think that seeing a dietician would help me greatly but was hacked off because the medical profession seemed to think that because I was taking care of myself then they could save...

    Dieticians

    I have a simple question, I have type 2 diabetes and would like to see a dietician but several doctors have ignored my request or said they only deal with serious diseases. Are diabetics supposed to be able to see dieticians or not, anyone else have similar problems. I have to add that I keep a...

    Type 2 Bad breath

    I am afraid my breath is just stinky according to my wife but I would rather know so that I can do something about it, I have smelt keto breath before & it is quite pleasant compared to my breath. I think that I may need to try a modified detox suitable for a diabetic.

    Diet

    I was recently diagnosed with type 2, and have lost over 2 stones since last October. My weight loss has stalled and my wife says that I look like “old Steptoe” and should slow down the weight loss to some degree. The main problem is that I have lost weigh from my shoulders and arms and do look...

    Excessive wind.

    I was diagnosed with T2 about four months ago. Apart from being quite confused with all the various theories and equally vociferous disclaimers by various experts, some seemingly genuine; others peddling goods or services that to my mind makes them appear rather disingenuous. “Allegedly”. :wink...

    A PERSONAL REQUEST ...

    When you read about something like this it makes your own problems seem minuscule. All my thoughts are with him, I hope with all my heart he recovers. Jim.
