Changing my details

[NaijaChick]

Hi Mods,

I have tried to change my details but I can’t seem to find out where to do it. Pls can I be changed from T2 to T2 with insulin.

Thank you in advance.

Hi @NaijaChick If you are using a pc to log in click on your small avatar picture at top right of screen.
Click on 'Personal Details'. Where it says 'Type of diabetes' select the third option 'Insulin-dependent Type 2'.
Click on the green 'Save Changes' box at bottom of page.

I think some forum members cannot see the 'Insulin-dependent Type 2' option because of a technical glitch.

I don’t have access to a PC. Everything is done through my phone. I saw a mod in another post saying that if people are unable to change it then they can help them.

 

[Prem51]

Oh ok, yes I think it can't be done from a phone. @Rachox, @Brunneria, @Goonergal, @Diakat and @Antje77 are moderators (apologies if I've missed anyone out).

Hi @NaijaChick and thanks @Prem51 for the tag

I’ve tried to edit your profile but unsuccessfully. I’ll flag this to the other moderators - I’m quite new at this, so one of my more experienced colleagues might be able to help.

Hi @NaijaChick , I’m not such a new mod, however that is one part of the profile I don’t seem to be able to change for you. Are you accessing the forum via a web browser or the app? I have just tried to edit my details via Safari on my iPhone and it is the same procedure as @Prem51 cites. If you can’t manage that way @DCUKMod , may have more power than me

 

[NaijaChick]

I tried it with safari app and it kept having a circle going round. I may have access to a PC in Wednesday so will try it then.

Thank you both for taking the time to try

NaijaChick - I 've made that change for you.

I changed your status to T2 with insulin, and your "Treatment" to insulin. Your profile also states you take Metformin. I didn't take that out as many are left on Metformin, alongside insulin.

If you are no longer taking Metformin, just tag me and I can take it out.

DCUK thank you so much. Yes I am still on 500mg of Metformin. Dr said it has cardiovascular protection and with my family history, I think that’s a good thing.
