I was a bit surprised coz he is GP so basically master of none jack of all sort of a person and diabetic nurse only knows diabetes and nothing else, although I have to say they are none the wiser, probably coz of the rigidity of nhs guidelines and they having to follow it.Its the same with the DN, last time i only saw her for like 1 minute or less, she did not do anything except say to me wow you have reduced your a1c a lot so just keep doing what you are doing and I will see you in 6 months time, which is when my review is in may and gave me a blood test form and fobbed me off. Oh ya also said we should use you as a case study since you reduced your a1c so much.</blockquote>
