[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 1280810, member: 17713"] Well I am glad that you got your referral to Addenbrookes. Very glad to hear of weightloss as so often the help NHS gives ref diets comes under fire. So you are both to me winning double prizes. So, so well done. I know for myself that it is a postcode lottery. Normally the GPs are pro active to keep carers healthy as it saves the govt a lot of money!! I was surprised that your healthcare professionals were iniatally letting you down. It is good that you can use your weight loss as proof of your determinations to look after yourself and you can easily say that you are taking the same keen determination to manage your diabetes and to do your best to avoid complications that diabetics can get. They shoud stand up and fall over themselves to help you if you state that you know the levels you should be achieving, know that blood rises after food and that you want to test yourself after food to find out which foods if any affect your bloods and then to cut them out. Really pleased for you but now will bethe time that you need to stand your ground, grow your knowledge and see if you can get your health professionals to take a genuine interest to help you look after your wife...
