[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 1636962, member: 21149"] Hi. From what you say and those symptoms you probably are diabetic. The nurse appears clueless and you need to make contact with the GP if the next nurse visit is no improvement. Ensure that you have an HBA1C test done 1-2 weeks before your appointment and ask for the results. Use online access for your test results if you can. If you can, buy your own meter and strips and test every so often 2 hours after a meal. The reading should be below 8.5mmol to be in good control. Blurred vision thru diabetes will clear by itself but you are entitled to annual retinopathy tests anyway. As you may gather a low-carb diet is an important part of managing T2. [/QUOTE]
