yes I can relate to the haemolytic anaemia, there was a few others things he told me they noticed which may or may not be something to do with the problem.

That's quite alright :) I do know that it is quite a peculiar test and not done on a regular basis for the majority of diabetics. My paediatric doctor is still trying really hard to get in analysed in Scotland as she thinks others maybe in the same position as me. It would be an interesting test...

I recently had my annual eye screening last week and the results said I have had damage done to my eyes. I'm only 16 in September and I've had diabetes for 12 years. Is there anything I can do to help??
