Annoyed!! And unsure.

1 Reply

I recently posted a list of side effects ive been having and got lots of replies asking to check my blood sugar. I asked the nurse on Wednesday when I had my 3rd zoladex injection and she said there was no need due to it being ok a year ago! And all the side effects were just the injection. Well after mentioning it at work today the nurse took my bm. It was 3.4. Very low and I had to drink lucozade and have a slice of toast. Ive been told to check it regularly until I can see the dr monday. I just feel like its all one big game and no one listens. Sorry to rant again.

I would put in an official complaint about the nurse! You are right to be annoyed,if you have been refused a simple diabetes check on ground s it was ok last year! Do hope you get it sorted asap -get an emergency appointment with GP as blood sugar this low is a hypo.Lucozade,dried raisins,chocolate all will help raise blood sugar quickly but try to eat slower release carbs eg oats,wholegrain bread,peas,beans,baked potato, cinammon.
