HI ALL I HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED SINCE THE 3RD OF DECEMBER 2012 AND ON THE 14TH OF FEBRUARY THIS YEAR I HAVE MY FIRST APPT WITH THE CONSULTANT OR HIS UNDERSTUDY, AND MAYBE THE TEAM HACVE NO IDEA WHAT TO EXPECT .SHAME I NEVER DID GENERAL NURSING ONCE I QUALIFIED IN ANOTHER FIELD I MAY HAVE LEARNT A BIT MORE AND MAYBE WORKED IN THE DIABETIC CLINIC, AND HAD SOME IDEA WHAT TO EXPECTON THE FIRST VISIT . IT CANNOT BE TO BAD AS YOU ARE ALL HERE READING THIS LOL.
I AM PLEASED THAT THERE ARE SITES LIKE DIABETES UK AND OTHERS AROUND AS THEY DO WHAT THEY SAY HELP YOU OR TRY TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND TERMINOLOGY FROM THE START AND HAVE A PLACE TO ASK QUESTIONS THAT ARE ON YOUR MIND AT THE TIME. MY POOR WIFE WENT FOR A MONTH AND A HALF NOT KNOWING TO BUY FOR MEALS FOR THE TWO OF US AND SPENT AGES LOOKING AT THE BACK OF ITEMS TO SEE THE SUGAR CONTENT . WE ARE LUCKY IN A WAY AS WE ARE BOTH ON LOW FAT DIETS DUE TO MY WIFE CARDIAC CONDITION AND ME WITH A PANCRATIC CONDITION , IT IS ALOT CHEAPER AND EASIER TO COOK THE SAME MEAL AFTER ALL WHAT IS WRONG WITH LOW FAT MEALS AND WHAT IS CALLED SENSIBLE COOKING FOR DIABETICS I MAY HAVE THAT WRONG BUT YOU ALL KNOW WHAT I MEAN GOOD OLD FASHIONED MEALS TWEAKED UP ALITTLE. IF ANYONE HAS ANY TIPS ON WHAT I AM TO EXPECT I WOULD BE MOST GRATEFULL AND A BIG THANK YOU AND WELL DONE TO THE DIABETIC UK TEAM FOR PUTTING TOGETHER A RECIEPT BOOK AT A TIME WHEN WE NEED TO EAT FOR BODY WARMTH AND ALSO KEEP OUR SUGARS RIGHT AND WITH A LITTLE LUCK MAYBE LOOSE ALITTLE WEIGHT WHERE IT IS NEEDED
THANKS
