[QUOTE="SunnyExpat, post: 1004899, member: 200461"] It you don't need medical advice, and feel you can manage all the possibilities that could arise from diabetes, and can organise all the appointments, blood tests, podiatrists, diet, drugs, etc, and simply feel you need to touch base with your HCP once a year, and your surgery agrees to you seeing your GP for this, that's the way to go for you. It's doubtful the GP would agree though, as it's undermining the people he employs. You could maybe request the practice nurse takes your blood, and you collect a print out of your results, but you may have to agree that you don't want any input from them regarding your treatment to be put on your notes.
