Yes you self diagnose the try a med to resolve the problem instead of getting “it’s your diabetes here take Metaformin and by the way here’s the statins as well”. The meds your try don’t work completely so instead of taking more you call the doctors to make sure you have what doctor Google says and get permission to repeat meds (leaflet says consult a doctor before taking more of the med). The test results confirms your self diagnosis but no prescription so off to chemist and just buy another course (this aliment cost £30 in total). Hey it’s works happy days. Just had a call from my doctor or rather the receptionist “ it’s your diabetes that’s why the over the counter didn’t work? You haven’t had bloods done for a while would u like to make an appointment.
my answer. - no thanks to the blood test. No point unless to keep my records up to date as won’t take Metaformin. Yes all better and feel fine. Dr Google says it could be down to the menopauses.
doctor receptionist agrees then says there is a prescription waiting me!
