Surprised

Do you ever feel like every time you have a hospital appointment the doctors always find something to moan about? I feel like this nearly every time I have a hospital appointment. No matter how hard I try the doctors always seem to find something to moan about. This makes me not want to go to the appointments because they always seem negative so I don't see the point. It can make you feel unhappy and annoyed when you have been doing everything right but the doctors still aren't happy with your levels or your hba1c.

Today I had a hospital appointment in the morning. I really didn't want to go to the hospital because I didn't want the doctors to tell me that my levels weren't good or that my hba1c was too high. I didn't really want to find out what my hba1c was because at the beginning of the year my hba1c was 12+ and 3 months I had got it down to 8.7, I really wanted my hba1c to be below 8 today.

I was so happy and surprised when I came home from my hospital appointment. The doctors and nurses never moaned at me one they were so impressed and happy with my diabetes and how much I have changed, they were proud of me (: The doctor couldn't believe how much I have improved since the beginning of this year. My hba1c is 8.1 which I am really happy with because it is nearly below 8. I couldn't believe all the things that the doctor and nurse had said, it was all good things, they said my levels have improved a lot and my hba1c was really good. All I need to do is bolus for my breakfast 5 mins before I eat and this will help my levels be lower at 10am and she said to keep doing what I have been doing and my levels will get better and my hba1c will go down even more. I was so happy with my appointment today because the doctor never moaned at me and it should that all my hard work had paid off (:

I know it can always feel like every time you go to a hospital appointment all they do is moan at you and tell you to do more things but just think how happy you will be when all of your hard work pays off. It will make you so happy when you get your levels and hba1c down; it’s an amazing feeling knowing that you are the reason why your levels are so good. I know you will be able to get your levels down and get a good hba1c because you are a lot stronger than you think, always remember that.
