[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1933698, member: 53162"] Sorry to hear that [USER=423859]@Tracie1212[/USER] - half dose pens do work so that was complete nonsense and as for the appointment itself, ignore and move on, I tend to take mine with a punch of salt and with no expectations. I was disappointed with my appointments after my diagnosis, didn't feel I got anywhere so decided to change my approach to them so now if I have questions then I take a list with me but also accept I know what works and what doesn't and if it contradicts my knowledge then I research it after the appointment to test their advice. I also asked questions like 'what would you do in my shoes' which helps them to visualise the practical aspect of their knowledge. Support is vital though in whatever shape that takes, forums, DSNs, consultants so do lean on these to help keep you on track. [/QUOTE]
