[QUOTE="reliable_richard, post: 155108, member: 29498"] I have had a letter back from my annual scan that says I have background retinopathy but no action needs to be taken at the moment. I am very concerned about this. I am 21 and had type 1 diabetes for 10 years. My Hba1c level has been around 7.5 for the past 5 years or so, and my blood pressure is low. As many of you have mentioned, I dont feel there is enough specific information and would have prefered if they had phoned me to explain it more. I feel worried I might loose my sight or something :( ; I dont really know much about it. Anyone have some reassurance? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
