[QUOTE="Bill_St, post: 2088806, member: 310899"] The first stage in coping is understanding. Remember that GPs may only have 2 or 3 T1s on their lists and they were trained at a time when there really was a lot of misinformation. Many, but not all, do try to keep up to date but with a complex field where even the specialists often get things wrong, where information is very rapidly developing, where new techniques such as using CGM (even on dogs in both USA and elsewhere) are developing vast amounts of complex data, it is not surprising that many healthcare providers are struggling. We have to understand that a lot of us need to educate ourselves in our particular needs. It will be some time before we can develop artificial intelligence systems that will work effectively - but we are working on it and there are current trials of systems such as BigFoot. Till then, the best treatment for PWD may well be self-education. We have to recognise that we need to use our own intelligence. [/QUOTE]
