Dear All,

I have posted a petition on the 10 Downing Street website regarding the advice given by the health authorities particularly to Type 2 diabetics - however, I know that many Type 1 diabetics disagree with the carbohydrate advice given to them.

Registered just now. I note closing date is today.

From other posters on this forum, I must consider myself extremely fortunate in having the excellent service I experience here

I did Dave. Still paying the mortgage. Had just replaced two sets of three pairs when I was diagnosed diabetic. When it was under control, had to have them all reglazed plus prescription polaroids. Grrrr.

Dear All,

The petition can be found via the link below:

Hope that some of you will consider supporting my petition.

Perhaps this is a facility provided by the Government is something that, as a group, we could make better use of to let the powers that be aware of our views.

Best Wishes - John

Dear John,

Have just signed your petition - it does exactly what I was considering doing, well done!

Hi again Katie,

Did you have any joy in getting others to sign it too. That's a good idea perhaps other members of this forum would be willing to do that too.

Best Wishes - John

Hi John,

Have you tried advertising it on the other UK forums? Diabetes.co.uk is a popular one (although obviously not as wonderful as this one!).

Hi John,

Good on you for taking some action. I am inspired to do one on test strips!!!!
I have signed and fingers crossed for a positive outcome.

I was just wondering about the facebook link option at the bottom, have you used it?

all the best, lou x

Thanks Northerner - Yes I've taken it elsewhere too.

It is moving up but so far quite slowly.

However, I thought that diabetics might be a little bit more proactive about the way their condition is treated.
