[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 1127829, member: 85785"] My endocrinologist and his dietician, directed me to the forum. He is very open minded and thinks outside the box. I met the same dietary advice from my surgery for over a decade and when my endocrinologist wrote to my GP about my diagnosis and how I controlled my blood glucose levels and the results from my weight loss and how all my health issues were alleviated, he had a change of direction in his understanding of how to control bloods. I still had to show him my food diary and all my blood readings and he was impressed. When I took my wife to consult about her T2, our GP advised cutting the carbs. If you have the proof, they can't deny it. It is because in the last few decades diabetics were able to be look after themselves better with meds and a better healthier diet than they were before. There is also big business especially pharmaceutical companies that want you to be ill! A lot of GPs are not good with diabetes and the dsn role within surgeries have become important. It's the training that needs updating and the knowledge of the diabetic community. There are still some good doctors out there! [/QUOTE]
