[QUOTE="JenniferW, post: 1279938, member: 191472"] I started off with some of the same feelings in my EXPERT course, but doing the activities in small groups, was amazed to find out how little some people knew about all and any of this. So I didn't feel patronised - I thought it just had to be a course which would cater for all and everyone and then realised it was up to me to get the most out of it that I could. For me, the biggest plus point was the contact with the others in the group. Some - like me - were recently diagnosed, but there were also people in the group who'd been T2 for many, many years and were there because of the development of their condition, several of them now with big problems despite years of doing 'the right thing', and some of them having to deal with combinations of conditions and medications. Chatting with those people really opened my eyes. [/QUOTE]
