[QUOTE="Books1, post: 1598673, member: 139774"] Asked for blood test at surgery as eyesight was v wonky but optician said eyes not the problem. Back to surgery for results - walk into consulting room and doc says 'so how long have you had diabetes then?' Me 'that's the diagnosis then is it?' Doc disappears to find senior partner who says 'so who else has diabetes in your family?' Me 'no one' Doc 'are you sure?' Me 'yes' Doc - having finally looked at my medical record 'hmm think it might be type 1 you need to see your endo consultant asap and try to cut down on your sugar in the meantime' Hence why I'd rather see the hospital docs/nurses rather than my surgery!
