Thanks but we both know that D is a truly fickle friend and achieving numbers we like can be more luck than good management.Thanks Ryhia..your scores are so consistently great whatever meter you use
Great news on the ulcer I don’t have an ulcer but a large blister that isn’t healing it’s been there over a week now been to podiatry today and I’m going for dressings so hope it heals soon. Caused by swollen feet think it’s happening because of knee injuries months ago, but pleased your problem is solved.KHi, it healed very well and I was discharged from the foot clinic in November.
Hi Marianne just so glad your ok now I’m not has bad has you were but being diabetic you just can’t afford to leave anything that’s not healing it just happens my diabetic podiatry appointment fell within a week of the blister happening, I’ve dressed it everyday but it’s not healing and it’s looking a bit on the infected look so glad I had this appointment you can’t get a face to face with a doctor just a photo sent to surgery. What is happening with our local doctors practitioner’s we see face to face dentist, nurses, hospital appointments and you don’t get any closer than when you have retinopathy people are getting sick and leaving trying to get an appointment and that then overwhelmes the hospital A&E it’s time they woke up it’s not acceptable to treat patients like lepers. No wonder my 20months knee injury is still ongoing and I’ve had to do a self referral to physio yesterday what are they doing they have a responsibility to there patients don’t they.K4.9 for me today.
@Granny_grump_ I hope yours heels quickly. I was in hospital for a week on IV antibiotics but very well looked after by the teams.
