[QUOTE="Rach79, post: 44082, member: 12270"] Manxangel I feel sad that you have given up :( Although I can completely understand why you have but in a way I really want you to keep fighting. Do you know what your last HB1Ac was? How do you make sure you are on the best medication? Also I notice you don't know what type you are? Type 1 is insulin dependant and Type 2 is tablets and diet or diet only but you seem not to be coping on tablets although your hardly eating, your constantly lethargic. It seems like you are a Type 1 but they haven't diagnosed you a Type 1 yet. Why did they take you off insulin btw? Was there a reason or do they just do to you what they do to me which is state that they are changing your medication and you have no clue why? I know it's nearly impossible to get in touch but I suggest you try to get them to try you on the insulin again possibly. I know you said you don't like it but if that is what you need then it will save your health from deterioration in the future. I suggest if you are going to then the best way is by letter by registered post. That way you have proof you have contacted them and I think they have so many days to respond. I'm waiting until my 30th birthday (next month) and if they haven't then health services will be told EVERYTHING about them. I think if they knew they would wipe the floor with them but I always try to give people the benefit of the doubt so that's why I haven't many times in the past. You haven't been diagnosed long but I've had around 12 years of that clinic and Dr Khan although supposedly the best doctor is someone who I've had runnings with in the past. Especially when he mentioned how I looked gaunt and thin and that he liked big women!!! I actually walked out I was so upset. The MAIN REASON I COMPLAINED TO MY GP FOR MANY MONTHS was because I was upset I was too skinny and I had been praying for a solution. IF HE HAD CHECKED HIS RECORDS he would see all this but they don't, they never do and their records are always wrong. Infact I am complaining to health services so if you feel you want to complain too at least you will have a back up because you will have another diabetic on the Island complaining about the same thing so let me know if you want to. Of course it's up to you and I don't want to pressure you but I'm just mentioning that it might be easier to get a response and we would have a stronger case should two diabetics complain near the same time! I find it very worrying you are having pains in your legs.. I don't know if that's connected to diabetes or not but you need to keep strong and keep fighting - same as me. It shouldn't be a battle but unfortunately it is at the moment. Despite this I really don't want you to give up. Keep going and don't give up ok. [/QUOTE]
