[QUOTE="dancer, post: 2457974, member: 110569"] Yes it was nice, but before Covid I always had 6 monthly appointments with all the usual checks plus annual retinopathy screening. Now it looks like I will only have an annual review. My last retinal screening was over 2 years ago. Apparently this is due to GPs not wanting patients in the health centres, so we have to wait for hospital appointments. I read on the forum that the screening was to be in hospital now, due to there being two tests using the usual camera and a different machine. This is not the case in my hospital. My husband had his screening this week and it was just the usual photographs. Two nurses with diabetes have agreed with me that we are not being looked after properly and that will continue for the foreseeable future. Nice consultant, bad system. [/QUOTE]
