The National Health Service in Britain may introduce the idea of organising groups of patients to meet Doctors, to learn and understand how to cope with certain Health problems, like Diabetes, Asthma or Arthritis.
This initiative should be applauded !
With the help of my wife, I (we) have happily lived with Diabetes for the last 25 years ! It obviously means that I follow a well balanced diet, by avoiding fats for example.
This has also permitted a reduction of the prescribed medicins I take regulary. But it also means that I check and record my sugar level 4 times a day !
I walk a lot each day and consequently I am very fit for my age (82), enjoying a regulated life !
As a result, I (we) only need to see a Doctor to obtain further prescriptions. Now we seldom need the advice of a Specialist !
The project the NHS has, should be beneficial for everyone directly involved !
