[QUOTE="scousefly, post: 2151979, member: 471078"] I refused a Desmond course as I was also told it was aimed at the ‘dumbest’ person in the room on the day. I also was at in front of a diabetic nurse who was at least a size 22 (UK) and a dietitian who looked like she hadn’t eaten a square meal in her life. I have always been a carb and protein watcher due to the gym work and I halved my initial HBA1C in the first three months. I just watch my intake and don’t go silly with the sugar. By all means rant it shows others that your not being taken for a fool. My last nurse appointment ended with the advice of your bloods are great stop taking a reading so often and don’t take your testing gear on holiday with you. I nearly swore at the nurse and her ‘advice’ and she put me on statins as my cholesterol went up up by 0.01. I haven’t used them and I ignored her advice completely. My next blood test next week will be very interesting as far as discussion is concerned [/QUOTE]
