Dear Primary Care colleagues 👩🏽‍⚕️♥️
We're the UKDCTN trainee group doing a research project on the use of spironolactone in HS.
We've put together a short survey to get GP perspectives, and I was wondering if you’d be happy to complete this? 🙏🏽

'Had she had that finger prick test she would have been alive today'

John Story told #BBCBreakfast about his campaign for better awareness of the symptoms of diabetes after his two-year-old daughter Lyla died with undiagnosed type 1 diabetes, 24 hours after her mum had taken her to their doctor, who diagnosed acute tonsillitis
