[QUOTE="Jaylee, post: 2512382, member: 101136"] Hi Helen, The treatment can have amazing results in conjunction with improved diabetes management. When diagnosed, I was in my late 40’s. the prospect of what was in store was daunting. The people doing the treatment were professional understanding of anxieties & companionate. I even had a nursing assistant take my hand on the first jab? (Not my thing.please don’t do that again…) I found keeping perfectly still & focusing on positive visuals helped. I can still drive. If you do have treatment? Don’t drive in. I took the bus. I would advise dark glasses & a peaked hat. It can be pretty dazzling.. The LED sigh signs on my local bus company? Pretty bright even in broad daylight.. There should be eye drop local anaesthetic with any jabs.. You won’t feel a thing.. [/QUOTE]
