[QUOTE="Cobra3164, post: 333065, member: 50203"] Hello jessie01. I have been recently diagnosed type 1, I wouldnt worry too much about your appointment yes there is a chance they will discuss with you about diabetes, I was called in to have a blood test because of the symptoms I had told them. The reason I was called in was to discuss what type I had and to start treatment as soon as possible to get blood sugars down I was a little scared about that appointment but felt reassured when I turned up for it, I was given some advice on how I can change my diet to help bring it under control. I found the experience OK at the end of the day obviously no likes to be told they have diabetes. Just take things one step at a time try not to think too far ahead as there may be a lot of information you want but going over what might happen is just going to raise your stress, nobody needs that. Baby steps. All the best for your appointment. Simon aka Cobra3164 [/QUOTE]
