Just had my first diabetic eye screening about a week ago and have had a letter back saying that I have 'Some background Retinopathy'. Which has worried me a lot as I wasn't expecting it!
Could this be linked to the aftershocks of my diagnosis? Had a bg of 28 mmol/l at the time.
Or does this mean that I'm not doing something right?
Also have been told on the letter that I am still only going to get a test once a year which is concerning me as a year is a long time for something to progress into something worse.
