[QUOTE="Dougie22, post: 233346, member: 34509"] In your position I'd be trying to bring my Dec 13th appointment forward if that was possible. Sounds like you are well in control of your food intake so I'm not sure Desmond would help your short term issues. I did it just two weeks ago and it was very good but concentrated on diet, etc with very little on self monitoring levels or the specific effects of different levels of medications. For that you need your doctor or DSN. In my case, my surgery aren't interested in my self monitoring levels, taking the (necessarily longer term) view that the reading to go by is the HbA1c. If this is the case in your ptractice, you may have to wait till they get the results. Even so, it should be a few days from when they took the blood and 13th Dec is still two weeks away. I'd give them a ring. One thing Desmond may reassure you on, if you get the chance to go on it, is the improvements there have been over the years on avoiding complications. [/QUOTE]
