[QUOTE="Fayefaye1429, post: 895806, member: 177228"] Hey Matt yeh you would need a referral from the go. Maybe you can approach it just by saying you were thinking and getting as much support for yourself at the moment would be useful and thought it might help to access more from the hospital? The gp will be limited with resources so it's been awesome perhaps till now and you may need just a pinch more from somewhere else for your situation now? If it helps I use a nurse, gp and my diabetic team. Diabetic team for pump, more specialist things like sport, nurse for bits in my body such as blood pressure and gp for my other body needs and medication. I think of it as Needing different departments in a store for different parts of me and I guess one place may only be able to give me so much but how awesome that there are other departments! I have no idea if I am making sense now lol but I do wish you the best [/QUOTE]
