Hi @jonf !

Since you're rarely on the forum, you may not know that for quite some time there have been technical problems with the private messages. The day you sent me a message in our conversation, I left the conversation by mistake (as has happened to you before). It's because the "send" and "leave conversation" buttons are side by side. Because of the current technical problems on the forum, no one is able to start new conversations, so that is why I have not responded yet. They do not know when this can be fixed. I hope you're well. Hopefully we can chat again soon! 😊

    Will try to explain.


    had a blood test or rather having one every week because of liver problems showing. Today is yet another blood test and fibro scan. My GP has decided that I am diabetic. Seriously someone up there please give me a break.

    Hi Jon! It's been a long two weeks since hearing from you! I'm so sorry to hear the bad news of yet another health challenge! You have so many hoops to jump through! πŸ₯Ί Is it possible the diabetes is due to your steroid treatment? If that's the case, weaning off the steroids might reverse the diabetes.

    Gawd Jon, your health just keeps getting worse!! I'm so sorry. @snuggles65 sorry you're struggling too. Fibromyalgia and diabetes is a dreadful combo.

    Hi Jon. I got your message. Your account is still set to private. Maybe you could email community@scope.org.uk to ask for assistance?
