[QUOTE="Shaggy_Dog_1, post: 1222138, member: 242916"] I'm really lucky it seems, I have a fantastic local DSN who is up on all the latest ideas, and a very good diabetes team at my local hospital (in Dorchester). The attitudes that I'm hearing on this thread take me back to when I was diagnosed, and the following 20 years or so, when medical teams told me I had bad results, and how I should live my life! I have walked away from a hospital after a nurse told me that I should never only inject insulin to bring down a high BG, but should only inject if I was eating. Now I am encouraged to pass on my knowledge of diabetes (all 49 years of it), not only to other patients, but to the staff as well. It may take time, but things are improving, honestly . . . [/QUOTE]
