I was classified as a Type 2 diabetic 25 years ago. In 2015 a clerical error put a 1 were a 2 should be. I was then treated as a type 1 diabetic for the next 5 Years. Of course my treatment didn't work. I got my medical records and found when this happened (Sci diabetes six monthly review). I believed that if I presented the evidence to the NHS GGC Board the mistake would be acknowledged and rectified. Not a chance The Board, and Consultants, my GP, Sci-diabetes, My Diabetes My Way, The information Commissioners Office and the Ombudsman refused to even acknowledge the evidence that I presented to them. The Board and Consultants In an attempt to cover up their mistake invented stories. They even invented the scenario were a C-peptide proved I was a Type 1. However this test was done 3 years after the clerical error. It proved to be a false negative. I took my evidence to another hospital and after two blood tests I was reconfirmed as a Type 2 diabetic. Has anyone else been wrongly diagnosed due to a clerical ?. If you are wondering why your treatment isn't working check your medical records. You might get a surprise.
