[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2413691, member: 372717"] Personally, I listen to the endo. I've never found my GPs to be at all knowledgeable about T1, and to be fair they've always been happy for my endo to handle it. And I've actually found hospital teams to be better than private ones (51 years of T1 in UK Australia and now New Zealand), though maybe I've just been lucky with the hospitals. I can't help with the eye stuff, as I've been at the on again off again background retinopathy stage for decades, but is there anything in particular that you'd like your hospital team to do for you as regards T1? Dietician, libre or pump access, etc etc? I find it helps to go into a session with as much idea as possible as to what you want to get out of it. Yes. (As far as I know, my UK knowledge may be out of date.) Correction. I did see a private eye specialist in Australia, and she was very good, and certainly gave me lots of useful info. (She didn't like quickly changing bgs and was quite invested in my hba1c result.) [/QUOTE]
