We can make appointments - when there are any - and order repeat presciptions; but we can't access test results.
My last appointment was worth it as she asked, "So you are not following the dieticians advice at all?" If all the people who are doing well don't go to appointments, how will they know that the NHS advice is flawed? They might just assume that metformin tabs are magic beans or something.Yes. We have another nurse who takes the blood, and we have a review with the DN later.
I was just thinking, if I had my results already, and no other problems, I would be tempted to give it a miss. Our DN is still pushing low fat yoghurts, carbs and all the things guaranteed to make us worse. I can do without that nonsense.
That is true. Maybe we can wear them down.My last appointment was worth it as she asked, "So you are not following the dieticians advice at all?"

That's the spirit!That is true. Maybe we can wear them down.
was in this morning and asked about online appointments only repeat prescriptions everything else by phoneHave you asked at your surgery? They don't tend to advertise this. I only knew by searching our health centre webpage, or I would be none the wiser. We have been able to book appointments on line and repeat prescriptions for a few years now, but the records on line is new this year.

Yeah that's why they called it "My Diabetes My Way"Maybe the information on the Scottish one is not as detailed as the English one as it seems to relate only to diabetes issues. The English one contains information about every disease and illness or injury sustained, including a list of the reasons why you visited a GP and the diagnosis. There will be many people the GP deems unsuitable for reading some of the information as it may contain information they were not fully aware of. We are warned about this on the consent form we sign.
Hi @bigjim19nhs scotland have a web site under "my diabetes my way" register and you will have access
to your diabetic readings and results don't know if any other nhs area has this facility or not !
It really is great, it's good to track your progress from previous results. We often focus too much on HbA1c, although very important, it's also really beneficial to track your cholesterol, eGFR, weight, BP, etc.didnt know if anybody new about it so i thought i'd spread the word glad to be of help
