I cant seem to get my Doctor to listen to never mind do anything. Ive got more chance of coffee with Her Majesty than actually getting an appointment.

Ive had this and nobody seems to care if I live or die by it. I used to be extremely fit. Now I cant walk 200 yards without feeling it. Some days I can barely move my right arm. My feet are always cold and painful and it is spreading rapidly. I was diagnosed about 6 weeks ago. Youre diabetic...

Im recently having some terrible days, which I didnt have before metformin. Yesterday my blood sugar fell to 1.9. I was irritable, tired, achy and I felt like I should not be driving a car. I had very cold, sore feet which seem to be getting worse and the same sensation seems to be spreading...

I had a real bad episode of this lastnight which went on for some time. I started to experience pain radiating to the front of my right shoulder. I was considering calling an ambulance but eventually fell asleep. Ive only been diagnosed a few weeks. My feet are getting more painful. My sugar...

Hi all. I seem to suffer with very cold feet. Today on one of the hottest days my feet are so cold that they are painful. I get the tingly feeling sensation like warming up from frost nip.

Hi. I can fully understand your needle phobia. I am not keen on stabbing my fingers either. I bought Accu Test mobile. It has the lance pen on the side. You just press the top and its like a king of gun. The prick depth is very adjustable. I have mine set on 1.5. Almost the lowest setting. I use...

Ive tried registering for thay. It didnt work and I am getting no response from accu check. I cant re register as it already recognises my details and keeps asking for my activation code. They have not sent one. I am very unimpressed as there seems to be no phone number to call.

I am newly diagnosed type2. I bought the mobile and I think its great. Excellent performance and easy to use. You can easily record data and look at timed results on your laptop etc. I have had a couple of test errors but they were prob my fault. Claim the free case its good.

Whats the difference. I am a recent type 2 with HBCA 53 and Cholesterol 5.2. Im on my 3rd day of Metformin. However I am getting what I call a crash. Usually in the afternoon. It feels like the early stages of being drunk but tiredness is overwhelming. Is something spiking or plumeting.

Peeing like a Racehorse and Drinking like an Elephant.

Hi all. I'm newly diagnosed and don't even know exactly what type yet. (Still waiting for my first appointment). I am so tired all the time. My joints ache and I sweat profusely at the slightest of physical activity. Oh and I feel sick as well. Anything I can do or should I call the doctors.

Hi all. I've never been impressed with my Doctor's surgery but I think they have just slumped to a new low. I recently had my habc1 or whatever it is. Phone call from Doctors yesterday. The results are diabetic. Can't tell me anything else. Appointment with the diabetic nurse in 2weeks. In the...
