I have been diabetic type 1 since 1973, diagnosed when I was 11, at school.

over that time I have moved from Bristol, to South Wales, then returned to Bristol and now I live in Wiltshire.

My problem is, within Wiltshire I have not yet seen a diabetic consultant or diabetic nurse at the local hospital - Salisbury, yet I have seen my practice nurse at my local surgery.

I am wondering that this exclusion explains why I might not be deemed at risk during this covid 19 crisis, have not received any government letter, or been advised to self isolate because of the condition, even though I am doing this with my wife in any case.

Should I be calling anyone specifically to let them know I am within the “at risk” or should I simply hope the local health trust actually know of my existence within there region?
