[QUOTE="Crimsonclient, post: 497059, member: 56911"] Hi I'm back part 3 lol So I just make it through to see my diabetes specialist and to be honest I wasn't surprised what happened I had keytones again but they were at the highest level they could be on the key stick things. And the specialist said I don't mean any disrespect but there is more of you than there was last time and he wasn't offensive he wasn't rude he was honest and non judgemental. And it is so nice not to be judged, and he just looked at me and said you know what this means don't you? I answered with a simple yes I'm going to lose my LGV as I have to go on to insulin. He simply just looked at me and said yes unfortunately you do, I will sort it out with the dn for me and write your prescription out for you and the nurse will see you soon. Even though I wasn't surprised to have to go on insulin, but was still shocked. I was waiting for the nurse to see me and I got called in and they gave me an insulin shot there and then, and was told that my prescription was being picked up for me on the other side of the hospital, and fair play they are fantastic.
