[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 471654, member: 21149"] Hi Scardoc.You are one of the lucky ones who have their diabetes managed by a hospital team. Many of us are managed by a GP or nurse at the local surgery. Their skills vary greatly as posts over the years have shown. This is why the forum is so important for those have inferior local support. Both my diabetes GPs were less then helpful and wouldn't listen to me, but fortunately I now have an excellent DN who happens to have transferred from the hospital diabetes clinic and hence is very knowledgeable. As she has discovered that I am quite knowledgeable (but not impolite) she deals with me at an intelligent level which is great; we discuss my treatment and agree the way forward. If only everyone could have that level of support. [/QUOTE]
