[QUOTE="mickthered, post: 356560, member: 60468"] Hi unigirl like you I too was diagnosed only a few weeks ago and also seen the DN at my own doctors I was also told the same about the flu jab almost word for word sounds like the same nurse it went something like your diabetic so you can have the flu jab and before I even got a chance to say anything her next words were I will just go and get it now I too turned it down and got the same about turning it down and refusing it tried explaining that as I was newly diagnosed and as this was my first visit there was a lot to take in and I wanted to concentrate on what was being said rather then just concentrate on a flu jab and would rather leave that until a later visit I think sometimes these nurses are so set in their ways they just go onto auto pilot without actually listening to the concerns of the patient first [/QUOTE]
