I’ve been to the gp a bit during the last year for various things. I’m 5 years post bc so am a bit over cautious now. Anyway, I had some blood tests in June and July as I had a wrist thing that wasn’t getting better. I also went back in October to get a private referral for physio as the nhs one was taking forever and it’s only £40 a time. (Not essential information) Anyway I had to go in as I needed to remind them about my bone scan for osteoporosis as they lost the referral letters from my oncologist (sigh). GP asks me why I’m not on medication for my Diabetes. What Diabetes says I?
Apparently I was diagnosed in August as part of my blood tests! Bearing in mind I haven’t even been asked to do a fasting blood sugar test.
So I’ve been prescribed metformin, got another appointment to see the nurse and have had to go to get another blood test at the chemist. ( they don’t do them anymore at the surgery).
FFS Diabetes isn’t just something you forget to tell someone about.
Without being a drama llama, this is something that could have killed me, made me blind or caused my toes to fall off. Though it’s the death thing that bothers me more obviously.
So am I AIBU to be peed off, write a complaint to practice manager and look for a new go?
