I've put a post on our city page on fb in the hope that if it has been dumped and someone has picked it up in curiosity....also gonna email our paper. Gonna make as much fuss as i can about it. Thanks guys, you have given me ideas i would not have thought of! Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Thats a good idea Hooked.....might send them an email....unfortunatly we only have a weekly newspaper, so it cant be a straight away thing....but definatly worth a try....i just feel deflated now, and kinda violated that someone would put their hand in my bag like that, and take something that i...

looked everywhere i can think....and annoyingly it had a new pot of strips in as well :(

i had my gloucose meter taken from my bag....am really gutted... :(

Ah, so im probably not able to get Say youth size for type 2 diabetic? That's a shame. Ill just have to be careful not to pull it off without noticing...i do like my band, and can't complain, it was free after all! I just happen to have very small wrists.... Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

I take pregablin(daily) and diazapam(as needed) for anxiety...also take antidepressant, antipsychotic and a few other as needed med. Was already taking them when i was diagnosed, but my diabetic nurse assured me they would work my diabetes around my mental health, as if my mental health...

I also have bad amongst other things...in dome ways, id already come to terms with having to take meds for the rest of my life, so was one less thing to get my head around when i was diagnosed 22 March this year. I have huge control issues, especially round food, have had an eating disorder...

Glad things seem to be looking up! I still think you are brave, and im glad that its paid off! *hugs* to everyone on the thread, especially those who are finding things hard and not feeling great. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Sorry your first visit was so awful :-( i agree with your daughter, complaining is a good plan. Is there another nurse in the practice that you could see? Hope things get better for you :( wish i could wave a wand and make it better :( Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

My mum is also diabetic, and before being diagnosed myself, i didn't know much about it. She doesn't test, she skips Dr appointments and eats all the wrong foods. She has no idea even if she is on the right dose of medication. Now i realise how stupid she is being and i know i don't want my kids...

Again you say under the law, but no specifics. I spent ages last night googling law, and i read a lot of interesting articles about the eu laws but all i could find under both eu and UK laws regarding anything close was the driving thing. Do feel i educated myself in lots of ways, on lots of...

Glad your doctor was helpful! To controller, you still did not answer my question. I would like to know the EXACT law and the EXACT section that says that the nos has to legally provide the strips and lancets. Unless you actually know and can tell us your shouting and political arguments are...

See, this sounds much more sensible than shouting and stuff. It just annoys me when people come along, and shout abpit stuff and don't back it up with actualities. Also, being aggressive and shouting at gps could end in you being removed from the surgery, by police, and leave you in need of a...

Nope, im medically exempt from driving on other grounds. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Its ok saying YOU ARE ENTITLED in nice shout capitals, but actually telling what part of law actually says these things, so we can go into the Dr and say law xyz section 739 says we are entitled and etc, rather than just encouraging people to go shout without full comprehensive follow up...will...
