Just like to say thank you so much to this site and everyone that has contributed, all the information and support is brilliant. I had my 1st blood test after being diagnosed 3 months ago. My bloods have fallen from 7% to 6.5%. I am so relieved. I was worried that the changes I was making...

Hi Martina . I have read your posts and I cant see anywhere if you think you are a type2 or type 1. It sounds like you have had a rough ride through the years and I can understand why you don't have a lot of faith in the health profession. I really believe that not all your symptoms are due to...

Your lucky I live in Cheshire and the county or any of the neighbouring counties have anything within 2-3 hours distance :x

Atos just ask questions that have to be answered by yes or no - there is nowhere to put can do if conscious or can do sometimes and not others - the people that have the strength (and sometimes the humiliation ) to go through appeal mostly have the ruling overturned which is a terrible waste...
