    Re: Another illinformed HCP. I am having outpatient investigations. Am at the hospital again tomorrow for an echo and 24hr blood pressure monitor. If i don't get any joy with the DN later then i might do as you suggest.

    Another illinformed HCP

    Re: Another illinformed HCP. No, no test for keytones at all. Until yesterday my BGs had been fairly level on the insulin as well only going up or down by about 3mmmol. I'm also fairly sure most of the symptoms i'm getting are BP related.

    When should you get medical help if on insulin?

    Thanks Louise :) The walk in centre shuts at 8 so is closed now and last time i went there they said my probs were too complex for them :o Have seen out of hours Dr and he put me on the antibiotics. May try NHS direct but usually they just tell me to call out of hours.

    Private messages

    Thanks :D That makes sense. Must be then that if people are online when messages are sent, they havn't seen they have a PM and havn't read it yet. Viv, it looks like your missing PM could have been deleted before you got the chance to read it.

    I think you are right Sid that they stay in the outbox until the user logs in. However mine seem to hang still even when user is logged in, looks like Louise has to! Maybe they havn't seen they have a PM. I've notified Admin now anyway to see if there is some problem with the system at the moment.
