I' ve had to talk to a Dr today about some other test results. I mentioned I'd bought a monitor. She wasn't that impressed, saying I didn't need to. I explained I was given a link to Diabetes.co.uk for help, advice and support. Among the advice I was given was, get a monitor. So I have. She said it wasn't necessary. I tried to explain that the overall opinion was it helps. She did say she'd speak to the diabetic nurse as she could help with using it and understanding the results.
I've now had a text saying she's spoken to the diabetic nurse, and we would not normally request blood glucose monitoring at home.
I'm now trying to find out if the nurse is going to help or not.
Is there info on this I can read if she is reluctant to help. I have to say I'm a tad frustrated with their attitude.
