Good morning I was hoping for some advice before I phone my stupid surgery again...!!!
I had my first hba1c test on the 11th January when I made this appointment (I had to make the appointment myself I wasn't called in) I requested a printout of my results I was told yes but ask the nurse who takes your blood !! So I did and on 13th Jan I phoned to see if my results were back they were so I said I'd pop down and get the results ... oh no you can't do that we can't give them to you you will be contacted if there's a problem?? I explained I'd asked to be told either way as I've been working hard to lower my bg the receptionist said ok I'll request your doctor to write to you I thought finally!!!!
Meanwhile I'd made another appointment off my own back to have a diabetic check up like foot care etc .. for the 30th Jan.
I received a letter from my doctor yesterday saying your blood results are normal please keep your appointment on the 30th to discuss !!!!..... NORMAL!?!?!? What is normal??? Should I be expected to wait this long to be told when all I really want is one number !!!! Am I being unreasonable!!!
