[QUOTE="Robinredbreast, post: 2037884, member: 44643"] Hi, write down what you both would like to say, just bullet points will do, go over it and be assertive. You know your daughter, if there is a problem then it needs to be investigated and not just 'brushed aside'. Sometimes we just need to stand up to them, keep asking questions and if they still don't have the answer's then they should refer you. This isn't diabetes related, but my now adult daughter has always had problems with her bones since secondary school and pain. She was 'brushed aside' Gp just gave her painkiller's to take, never referred her to a specialist. then about 3/4 years ago, she moved to another town, but close to me and the new surgery was fantastic. New GP listened to her, then sent her for a number of tests and then a specialist, she was diagnosed with Ehlers–Danlos syndromes, so finally she got a diagnosis. Good luck [/QUOTE]
