DN's get quite a lot of criticism for one reason or another so I thought I would sing my DN's praises.
I booked an appointment to discuss what I should do about my drugs when I start fasting. Initially sceptical we talked through what I intended to do. She warned me that my kidneys may not approve and to drink lots of water. I can continue to take my Metformin as I am allowed bone broth.
She booked me an appointment with the doctor so I can discuss dropping the propranolol.
She looked at my records and wanted to do my HbA1c test. I said no, she said yes! So I whipped out my mySugr app and showed her what I had on it. My data started 1st April and I wanted to cover three months starting then because prior to that, I was still spiking due to being an idiot.
So I have an appointment towards the end of June with a further appointment a couple of days later for the results.
We chatted about the NHS and I told her if I could reach out to all T2's and tell them what I know now.....
She said that funnily enough a colleague was trying to organise a group meeting with representatives from the NHS (I rolled my eyes at this point).
Anyhow, she is passing on my details to her colleague, we will see what happens.
She really is great!
