Had another hypo,a bad one, in hospital for 48hrs, is natural to feel anxious about going out on your own, worse of all after having a hypo, I feel sick,tired, and definitely don't want to eat, trying really hard to sensible, but have to wait till November for Dr appointment or DN, meanwhile its all very depressing and don't know where to turn,
 
Thank you Juliet, yes it's scary stuff at the moment, wish I have a magic wand,sadly not the case, if only x

Sorry to hear about your bad hypo, @Viviennes - also sorry that I don't really have any advice to offer you, just wanted to send you a hug as it sounds as though you're having a rotten time x

If you wanted to talk it through with someone you could try ringing the Diabetes UK helpline - https://www.diabetes.org.uk/how_we_help/helpline

Spoke to D UK, they were very good, and listened to me rant , doing everything I can do at the moment, doesn't stop me feeling,what next, my BG is still high, still tired, sleeping a lot,and generally feeling pooped. Just waiting to see DN,and my Dr
 
Glad you were able to at least talk to someone about it, @Viviennes - hope that you are able to see DN and Dr soon and that they are helpful. NHS waiting times are horrendous at the moment - my last appointment with a consultant was Dec 2017 - I was supposed to have another one in Oct 2018, but it hasn't happened yet :(
 
Oh dear,hope you get your appointment soon, it must be frustrating for you, I need a ct scan, Dr requested it ,had a phone call today and scan is Saturday, crikey thats was quick. But everything else seems to be a wait.
 
Thank you - it would be more frustrating if the consultants were ever any help, but tbh I'd rather see a DSN. I hope all goes well with the scan - that was very quick, maybe a cancellation, but good for you anyway that you don't have to hang around.
 
Here's a general hug and a clap and a well done for still being in your metaphorical boat on these crazy waves. I hope you get your answers soon and look forward to understanding more about what's going on for you.

Also, bad hypos feel rubbish, so hugs
