[QUOTE="kevin mallett, post: 1018263, member: 10215"] Hi Everyone. I have been a Diabetic since 2001. Prior to being diagnosed I gave platelets and a blood donar. I have been BULLIED BY A Consultant to go onto INSULIN, I totally refused ( My body my choice ) I have also lost 9 stone this has NOT been taken into consideration, l haven't had a review of my drugs. My reason is because every DIABETIC I know who inject INSULIN have either lost limbs or their eye sight, they have other issue's going on. I have also refused to take certain drugs ie STATINS as they are related to BOWEL CANCER and causes other issue's. GP's and CONSULTANTS need to listen to their patients, discuss it with us and NOT make decisions for us. We are the one's who know what is going on with our bodies, you may go on all these courses and think you know what best for us. Yes I do get upset when they won't listen or won't discuss it with me, I also understand that I could be causing further problems, I had a Triple Bypass 1/12/2014 and Stents put in 8/11/2015. I have immediate family who are NOT Diabetic's who have had to have Heart Surgery. I also understand that they think they have our best interest. SO PLEASE LISTEN AND NOT TELL US OR BULLY US INTO WHAT YOU THINK IS BEST FOR US. THANKYOU. [/QUOTE]
