[QUOTE="Geminigirl, post: 1299133, member: 137222"] Thank you everyone for the advice, I will have a good look at all the links you kindly sent me. I do have a meter and strips with no probs because with the Glimperimide I can (and have) had hypos in the past. Not for a while now but I think I actually eat to avoid it sometimes when I don't need to when I am out and haven't got my meter. I get slight dizziness anyway and if I am out I am so afraid of hypos I will eat something "just in case" I def am a carb queen and will def try to work on that one! I am attending the "Bariatric seminar" next week but have put I am undecided and would like the dietary, exercise and emotional support in buckets, as well as the weekly class so I can try my hardest. Had a bit of a row with DSN this morning on phone as she doesn't agree with my GP redoing HBAIC in Dec, she wants it now. I stood my ground and explained if I go in Dec as he wanted it will give me a few weeks to have a crack at making a difference. I have just passed the anniversary of my son's death so have been emotionally struggling tbh, but I know he would say get on with it so am going to give myself a kick and get started. Thanks again, it makes such a difference to be able to talk to other people in the same boat. It feels as though I feel ****** most of the time and people don't get it. It is a mix of the meds and the damned Diabetes I am sure. Onwards and upwards, what a journey this is! Everyone take care. Xx [/QUOTE]
