[QUOTE="Tracie1212, post: 1933647, member: 423859"] Had my long awaited appointment with Endocrinologist. First question asked was what's the best thing about your diabetes? Considering I was there due to continuing ill health found this a highly unusual question and very different to other past consultations with other medical professionals. Consultant didn't even know I'd been in hospital with DKA in June. Didn't understand my recent severe hypo. Had quite a few interruptions then found out DSN had asked to be involved in consultation which would have been invaluable and he forgot. I asked for half dose pen and was advised not proven they work. However I'm on half dose pen for novorapid which does work!! Had a load of blood tests taken await results. Feel really disappointed didn't get to ask questions and have discussion I wanted. Get better advice in here I feel Next appointment 6 months. [/QUOTE]
