    Tell me about it! I am a community nurse and always have to ask my patients if I can use their loo, it gets embarrassing when its the same ones each time. I thought my bladder might burst yesterday when I went to a new patient and hoped I'd be able to use the loo but when I saw the state of the...

    Hi all - just an update on my situation! I plucked up the courage and went to see the cdc. I asked him if it was the SS+ programme he was talking about and he said it was and offered me the choice of 4 packs a day or 3 plus a meal. He defiantely seemed a lot better when I met him than on the...

    I told him twice I have made an appointment with my GP to get the form signed the the first lady CDC gave me. I said that unfortunately there were no times when me and the CDC could meet so I was looking for a cdc who could visit me at home. He immediately said that there is no need to get...

    Thanks Dancing, Thats interesting, I wonder if he wants me to do 4 packs a day becuase he has told me I don't need to get my GP form signed to SS (would be no time to get this done before he goes away for 3 weeks). The other CDC I was in touch with before said I would need to get it signed to...

    Thanks for your replies ladies. He did mention the new rules, £48 per week was a lot more than I was expecting (thought it would be about £35-£40). I told him I was a vegetarian and so he said I would be better off with 4 packs as I Would find it tough doing the meals without eating meat...
