[QUOTE="Zilsniggy, post: 1993003, member: 222691"] Yes, it's difficult at times to see anyone, I'm currently waiting for a dietician appointment.........1 month after seeing diabetic consultant she contacts me, then I wait another month for an appointment letter to be sent, then it's 3 months before being seen...... I'm wondering if thos you spoke to after the DKAs were diabetes specialist nurses, because, to be honest, most general nurses have very little idea of diabetes or DKA. If what you are doing(you don't say what) is working at controlling your sugars, I'd stick with it. Diabetes, unfortunately, isn't a one size fits all condition to deal with or treat. Yes, I'[d keep all your readings for 2 reasomns: 1) You can show them to back up what you're doing is working, and 2) Sometimes they're a good learning tool for ourselves, I've often been surprised by foods I've thought of as being safe, and been told have been safe to eat by 'officials', spiking me to the high heavens.
