Sounds like they've gone all "prince Philip"...hahaha .Thanks Karen...I spoke to the practice manager yesterday afternoon...they are so defensive...why not just say we are sorry...I'm with Elton John sorry does seem to be the hardest word!
Get well soonMorning...up early with a stinking cold coming on (haven't had one for years)...after the recent debacle on the diabetes 'politics' front I am shattered...a little paper work...then food shopping...woke to a 5.8
Oh PM I am so sorry to hear that...shocking how the high street chain were unresponsive to your problems...however not surprising...thank goodness it was spotted...good luck at the hospital keep us updated when you can...fingers crossed for you.Morning All. 6.6 at 0800 according to Codefree. Yesterday I went to an independent optician after struggling for the past 6 weeks with my new glasses from a high street chain who werent interested in my problems. Anyway turns out I have a significant bleed behind right eye and have an urgent referral to hospital. I am so disappointed after more than a year of good control and it is the second bleed same eye in just over a year.
Anyway hope you are all ok. Have a good Thursday almost the weekend.
Stay well, safe and warm.
Thanks Bubbsie...should get seen within a week. The High Street people said their glasses are thoroughly checked so either I “lied” at the eye test or its a health matter and go and see my GP which I did. Hope your cold improves!Oh PM I am so sorry to hear that...shocking how the high street chin were unresponsive to your problems...however not surprising...thank goodness it was spotted...good luck at the hospital keep us updated when you can...fingers crossed for you.
How dare they say that...obviously you have to prioritise your eyes now PM...but I'd be tempted to get back to them for their shocking neglect when you're ready...the a*******s.Thanks Bubbsie...should get seen within a week.

My new glasses may need to be replaced when this gets sorted but it cant be proved that I had a bleed when they did the eye test in Nov so I have to put up with that.

Good news john...but I can understand the tears...you've done a wonderful job with him...I'd love to have a houseful if |I couldGabe the Fossie dog goes to his new home today so a few tears will be shed this evening, both in sorrow and also Joy that we helped him on his journey
So you won't be going back to the high street chain...they may or may not have known about the bleed...but could have listened to your very real concerns & checked you...surely that's not too much to ask?My new glasses may need to be replaced when this gets sorted but it cant be proved that I had a bleed when they did the eye test in Nov so I have to put up with that.

Money is the root of all evil!SPOT ON.
Not sure who said it, but it went,
" we are FULL of sugar, and need to remove as much as possible,"
So HOW can the solution be to add MORE sugar to the Diabetic FIRE.......
At the very least we SHOULD be offering alternatives to the traditional "Eat the same.. only less of it "
when simple facts show the majority following that advice (diabetics) are struggling with the ravages of the disease.
From what i have gathered in my short time here, there really is not another option, and of the two..Traditional Or LCHF,...it's clearly LCHF for me
I personally feel as normal as i ever have since diagnosis, as per many others, healthier, fitter, blah, blah..you all KNOW the benefits.
Almost shameful, if not criminal, that the powers that be have NOT*, as far as i am aware, properly trialled the benefits and potential pitfalls of the this WOE, in a regulated environment.
(* yes i am aware of all the reasons WHY..)
Before even reading your reply I wrote 'money is the root of all evil '.There's not as much money in good standard advice...god forbid if they stopped the useless DESMOND courses...or our health care professionals promoted alternative effective ways to manage T2...profits could fall
