    Does anybody understand c-peptide results?

    Hi I have been classed as type 1 since I was 21. I have recently gone under a new consultant & sent for a c-peptide test as my symptoms were slightly confusing. My result came back at 232, can anybody explain this? The nurse said it meant I definitely need insulin, but may not be type 1 & that...

    Dealing with a know it all non-diabetic

    It's interesting to hear how often this misunderstanding arises - BUT i am afraid that there is little hope of change anytime soon. Diabetic since 21, am 44 now & my husband still gets confused & I have been with him since I was 15!!! Luckily I rarely get hypos & recognize the signs quickly...

    given up.

    Hi, I have been having the same problems for a long time & still haven't managed to take control back. I have however seen a new consultant whom is very supportive & understanding (they said that there is no situation they haven't seen or can't work around). My answer for the time being has been...

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    Is it just me that is sick of the insinuations that all leave voters are silly/stupid or irresponsible children? This needs to stop!

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    I don't regret my leave vote & nobody I know personally does. I do agree, its become very nasty. Some are acting like babies that have spat their dummies out!

    Vertigo Problems and high blood sugars!

    Have you checked your blood glucose monitor is working properly? You probably have, but heat affected insulin is the only other thing that springs to mind & you have already changed that:)

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    Its all about what we believe. You may believe we are better in, I may believe the opposite, that is both of our rights. At this moment in time, what ever experts say, nobody really knows how things will look in 5 years time, a lot will depend on how the act of leaving is dealt with, there were...

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    I guess that is what we call democracy, we all have choices, we all have opinions. I'm thinking that Cameron must now think that there are over 17 million idiots in this country then.

    I apologise if my comment has upset Brunneria or Zand, that was certainly not my intention. However, maybe you should review how your posts may have read to others!

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    I get that, but they agreed to the referendum & they were voted in by the people at the last election (to serve the people of this country). I personally don't agree at running away as soon as your not happy with a result, that to me isn't much of a plan.:(

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    I am with you on that one & I am guessing that a number of people haven't lived with the consequences that many people have been forced to tolerate (without anybody caring or listening) for many years. Point remains that these 'experts' thought everybody would listen to them & do as they say...

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    It would make a complete farce of the whole vote, of our Government & of Britain! In my mind it is not an option & I agree if it were to occur, this country would be at huge risk of volatility or even civil war.

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    Wouldn't it be interesting to see what affect could be created if every person in Britain made sure that they bought one or two purely British products extra each week?? I believe that they did this in Ireland (packaging state purely Irish) & it had a huge affect!:rolleyes:

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    I have to agree with you. Cameron was elected, he agreed to the referendum & to be honest our Government are completely out of order not to have considered that the people might choose to opt out. Plans should have been considered!! You can't blame the voters.:stop:

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    You are absolutely right. Nobody is saying we want to return to slavery & go back to old fashioned trade agreements. But lets be honest, transport/communication etc is all easier now & the EU have delayed us signing many trade deals because it didn't suit other members. We stood alone as an...
