hey ronnie, i was a medical mystery (still am :lol: ) when i started with the old necrobiosis. i was treated for eczema, psoriasis n something else i cant remember. then i had a biopsy and was told iam rare (?!?) and theres no cure and could every surgeon in west yorks come n have a prod at my...

that sounds a bit like my GP. i really honestly dont think they have a clue. 10 yrs ago i developed necrobiosis lipoidica and was told by the skin specialist that i should be tested for diabetes. the doc refused and it wasnt until i sprained my foot 5yrs ago that i was tested and diagnosed. they...

pheonix, ill have a go with that calculater when i get my bha1c results on friday. thanks

:lol: yeh. but ill tell you something, ive learnt more from coming on here and reading peoples posts than what the docs have told me. i never even knew about low carbing, and my docs not happy about me doing that. even my nurse said, in a rather sarcastic way, "oh well you might be able to...

thanks rrb. i guess its just another obstacle to overcome eh? :lol: i reckon ill adopt your accronym. sod the docs. wendle x

hi anti_carb, im possibly mody. my gp and consultant suspect i am. but here the plot thickens... i was sent to the hospital in bradford that deals with mody and they do the testing. but, when i got there (waited an hour in a boiling hot waiting room to see an old bag of a doc) they refused to...

well i had to argue with my nurse last friday and demand the hba1c test i shouldve had in may. she said i wasnt due until dec but im supposed to get tested every 3 months. im still peeved about it although i did get the test done after she'd double checked my notes.

i may try that hanadr. its worth a go. thanks wendle x

hi andy, im no expert but when i was on metformin 850mg 3 x daily, it harldy touched my sugars. the doc put me on gliclazide. but i honestly believe that my sugars would still be high if i hadnt reigned in my eating habits. i watch my carbs now.whats your diet like? wendle x
