@Gaz-M Great to know I’m not alone!

Thanks for replying @Rokaab Both user accounts (Win 10 & Mac) have local admin rights. However, I’ll take your advice and look into the .Net dependency.

I am having some consistent issues with the uploading data from my Libre Reader to the LibreView web dashboard. Windows 10 LV drivers will not install successfully. Issue with Microsoft .Net file that would not install successfully Mac LV Drivers install ok. However, either: 1. LV...

I attended a DESMOND course about a month after diagnosis. If I had not found this site and subsequently Bernstein, it would have been extreme useful. However, because of the timing, I already knew 90% of the content. However, the <10% I didn't know was useful. It was also useful to share...

I have no idea. However, maybe you should just ask your GP as this may be something they have done before for someone else and they know the drill? Cheers + Bon voyage! Wobbles

Totsy, I have sent you a PM. Wobbles

Thanks all for your comments and suggestions. Cheers, Wobbles

Dennis, The way my warpled logic works is that when I am in front of GP to discuss and hear the NHS Hba1c results, I want to already know what the results are! If they are low then I have a good argument to "negotiate" for some slack with the GP, if they are not so good, I will have egg on my...

Hi all, Q - Is it possible to pay to have a Hba1c test done as and when you (patient) wants to? If so, where do I go? How much does it cost on average? Reason for the question is that I am having a battle of wills with my GP regarding whether or not I should continue to be prescribed test...

Thx Jem!

Thanks ALL for you're encouraging comments and advice. Re exercise, initially I was concentrating on plenty of walking and some cardio in the gym. Then after reading Bernstein, I realised the long-term benefit to the metabolism of resistance / weight training. I changed routine to weight...

Hi TW, Thx for the tips. Do you think I should wait for GP to increase dosage or gradually do that myself? Wobbles

Fergus, Thanks for the helpful suggestions / ideas. I will keep plugging away at it! Cheers Wobbles

Hiya all, Some background... I was diagnosed in early Nov 08 as a Type 2. When the doc tested my BG it was over 30! The first month I followed normal GP dietary advice and my BG was all over the place ( I was eating porridge, basmati, pasta, etc) inspite of lots of exercise (walking, gym...
