[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1021353, member: 196898"] Thank you [USER=17302]@Osidge[/USER] for your kind regards. I was discharged from my stroke consultant some time ago, and my heart specialist has also discharged me. I was able to return to work after a short convalescence, and I finally retired a couple of years ago. i have a DCN, but she says I will be discharged when my Hbaic drops below 56 for 6 months (2 blood panels) and this seems likely to be confirmed in April. My dietician has also discharged me once I started LCHF and dropped the official standard plate method. My GP is still supporting my self monitoring, but will be under financial pressure to withdraw it. I hope to be reducing my diabetic medication next week too, since it is threatening to give me hypo's if I continue as prescribed. I still have an eye consultant who monitors my laser treatment which was necessary after one of my strokes. Saw him last week, and he is satisfied I have a stable condition. I will see him again in 9 months time. BTW however, I am not convinced about statins, and will be stopping them as I said. [/QUOTE]
