[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 2033975, member: 93179"] Just after Christmas I had to see a (temporary) GP as I needed some painkillers for a bad case of weeping oedema. She went trotting off to ask for advice, and came back with a prescription for me - fine... But then she told me I also needed to have a blood test to check my HbA1c because I was at risk of diabetes! Me: " o_O Errrm - but I've actually [B]had [/B]T2 diabetes for over five years." I suppose I should have been happy that I've been able to keep things reasonably well enough under control over that time for my HbA1c results to give her that impression... And after I got over the :***: shock, it did give me a much needed laugh and cheer me up no end! Robbity [/QUOTE]
