    Ian. Thank you for your post, much appreciated. Yes it is hard when the doctors dont seem to have an idea of what a type 2 diabetic is going through, I think that because they cannot see an injury or not pic up any symptoms of an illness, they seem to think there is nothing wrong, so they just...

    MeiChanski. I have never been checked for what insulin I am producing, I think the way I am being looked after by the doctor isnt as it should be, I have an annual check up every November, but they just tell me what my HBA1C is and they tell me I am doing wonderful, check my feet and thats it...

    Antje77. Thank you. No I have not tested with a keytone strip, it showed on my blood monitor, 16mmol and underneath that it said 'Keytones' if my blood reading is low, that disappears. Thank You Tankie

    Thank You Goonergal. I am going to request that I can go to the Hospital Diabetic Centre as the doctors do not seem to be interested in diabetes at all.
