[QUOTE="GBS_82_, post: 1195385, member: 284779"] Interestingly a friend of mine told me that on average each GP surgery only has one type 1 on their books. Obviously I don't know if that's exactly true, but I can believe it. When I was first diagnosed the diabetics nurse there told me that she would primarily leave me in the care of the hospital because she only really understands type 2. I guess what I'm saying is sometimes we have to be pushy with GPs and know exactly what we're entitled to. Not because they don't care or are ignorant but because they are SO busy and overwhelmed and it's hard for them to remember that our treatment can be quite different to our type 2 cousins. [/QUOTE]
