[QUOTE="OdinsBeard, post: 1610442, member: 449883"] HbA1c is around 8 I think last time, I don't have any complications apart from a bit of retinopathy and possible links to mental illness (under investigation) I've been blundering on for years like this, always brushed it under the carpet and got on with it but age has finally caught up with me and being off work for so long hasn't helped, I think the shifts I was doing weren't helping at work, they wouldn't put me on a shift that agreed with me, I always found nights the best as I was up a few hours before work and it gave me time to get the sugars down. Getting up at half 4 in the morning was just putting me into a right state. I would fall asleep at work at my bench, I would go to bed at 6pm and still not get enough sleep to do that shift. Unfortunately I can't pinch an inch in those areas, still got good elasticity in the skin, there is nothing to grab, all the years of cycling. I'll just have to manage until I can get things sorted, Don't really have a choice, the healthcare in this area is diabolical, one of the doctors surgeries closed and now I have to wait nearly 2 months for a doctors appointment.
