Received a letter a few days ago telling me I have been discharged from the diabetes clinic and my next appointment with the DSN has been cancelled. I thought it was a little strange and put it to one side to see if any more information arrived and yes I have been discharged and put on the PIFU (Patient Initiated Follow Up) its a scheme where if you need help its up to you to contact the clinic, if you dont use it within a year you will automatically be discharged back to your GP and you need to get re-refered back to be seen again.
I already have a letter saying I have been discharged, but I was just curious if this has happened to anyone else as I was expecting a appointment with my endocrinologist about going on statins and I'm not sure if this will go ahead now. Guess I will just have to chase it with the GP if the appointment dosent come through.
