[QUOTE="Qwerty101, post: 2417528, member: 543471"] It was a routine medical it got picked up on who told me to go to my GP and they arranged a HBA1C test at the hospital. So I guess it was done properly... The diabetes nurse actually rang me up assuming I had already been told about the diagnosis (which I hadn't) to arrange an appointment 3 weeks later, that's when I was told to just eat healthy for now. The appointment was cancelled by them last minute. with no clue when they can re book me in. that was a little frustrating to say the least!! enrage kind or comes close! haha from my understanding it is something out of their control though so I cannot blame them. I have done the testing and CGM off my own back to go into the appointment with some sort of data for them to perhaps work out wether I need medication or not. so yes up to now they know nothing other than my HBA1C result and a 2 min chat on the phone. It was only through contacting my GP he offered me a repeat HBA1C but I think its probably too soon. The food forms are sat waiting for me to pick up. I kind of just in limbo waiting to find out which route is best having taken the choice so far to go LCHF. [/QUOTE]
