[QUOTE="sanguine, post: 591117, member: 101256"] Just spoken to my proper GP (not the apprentice who I saw when diagnosed) - practice procedure is to log a call and the GP rings you back to see if you need to go in. I could almost hear him fall off his chair when he was looking at the change in HbA1c - 'wow that's amazing' etc etc. We went through the other results, weight loss, BP, lipids. He said he'd like TC to be around 5, I said so would I and I'm heading it that direction. I think I raised the S word and he then referred to today's announcement on the BBC and thought it was utterly bonkers (yay). At the end I told him I was doing LCHF and exercise, and he just congratulated me and wished all his T2s could make such improvements (he thought I was now in prediabetic range but I didn't think so - not quite). So next is my 6-monthly review in September. He wasn't sure if that would include lipids (I hope it does) and that he would need to check the practice protocols. [/QUOTE]
