Got great advice from my new specialist (if you are not making the progress you expected, why not try to get referred to a different trust/specialist). Took it and acted upon it. I have lost 90lbs so far (BMI down to 22.4), am in remission and eating well and getting fitter.

I start an MSc in Psychology in the autumn and am going to focus on mental health in diabetes. I know how hot affects us. I have been there!

Happy to share how I did this if anyone is interested.

Of course I will!

I feel like a new man and it has given me a renewed spark. I will come back to the thread on Monday and let everyone know some the things I did. Thanks for the kind wishes.
