[QUOTE="DEB260173, post: 1236376, member: 27365"] I was diagnosed with T2 a few years ago and have had ZERO advice on how to manage it from ANY medical professional - other than being told to take my tablets and go away and get on with my life. This clearly hasn't worked as I've recently had to increase my meds. As someone who has had pretty major weight/ eating disorder issues since the age of 8 (and I'm now 43) and has underlying medical conditions other than the T2 that make weight loss more difficult, you'd think they'd be a bit more focussed on trying to help - I've not even been offered an appointment to see a dietician or a diabetic nurse. I have no plan, no advice, no nothing. I've asked for more help but this doesn't seem to actually result in more actual help! I know the NHS is over-stretched but diabetes is a very confusing thing and I think most people struggle to get their head around it without focussed, personal help. [/QUOTE]
