[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 2439019, member: 196960"] I understand. They can effect us more than they realise. One retired GP told me "well you are still overweight". Really? As if I didn't know. Those kind of comments can evoke eating disorders in a person who only has half their digestive system. Or even those who have a full one, eh? I used to be effected by everything I was told by medical people. Even out of date nurses. I've had more negativity from out of date nurses than anything else. However my diabetic nurses are fantastic. They listen. A great team. I have a new GP practice nurse and she's great too. She has excellent life experience. That cannot be taught from a text book. I feel we need to educate them just as much as they educating us. I guess it should be a partnership. [/QUOTE]
