[QUOTE="Deleted member 508720, post: 2107025"] Hello. Thanks for your encouraging and informative reply. I remember talking to you previously. I do appreciate your advice about asking for a print out. I had absolutely no idea that I could ask for a printout or indeed that I was entitled to one. I know that there are many other things they test for and I’m sure my doctor will study my results when she gets them. We are very fortunate to have a first class surgery with doctors who seem to pick up on things. My diabetic nurse is brilliant. She will phone me the result but I must remember to ask for a printout. I’m very fortunate that I have access to My Diabetes My Way, which is only available to people living in Somerset and Scotland. This gives me access to all my doctor’s diabetes records in relation to me. I can see all my results and also see graphs and charts of my progress. All the test results which you mention above are listed, together with a smiley face if all is well and a frown if things need to improve. I shall certainly take your advice and keep my eye on all these figures. I read somewhere that taking Metformin can lead to a deficiency in Vitamin B12 and that the damage is irreversible. The doctor has arranged for that to be tested when I have my other blood tests done on 19 August. With many thanks again and best wishes, Sheila [/QUOTE]
