[QUOTE="clarusblue, post: 277030, member: 44676"] Had the appointment first thing and the nurse wasn't even a diabetic nurse! Sent me for the usual bloods and said to make an appointment for a certain GP for a week's time because apparently he's more of a diabetes expert. I'm a bit concerned as when I mentioned my issues to him last September he told me he didn't know about it and to see the nurse so I'm feeling a little fobbed off. But the nurse said he will probably refer me to the hospital endocrinologist and community diabetic nurses who are the experts.vin the meantime I have to keep very strict records of everything I eat, blood sugars and injections. She also advised me to inject and deal with hypos as they come. So at least something will happen. It's just annoying, same story as ever today, lovely blood sugar on waking, breakfast, injection, hypo, lunch, injection, hypo, snack, injection, hypo. Dinner and I've run out of lucozade and can't be bothered with another hypo so don't inject. Half miserable and half optimistic now! [/QUOTE]
