My GP's are very pro-active , could you maybe try another GP? A second opinion often helps . Best of luck Pre-Diet
This thread seems to be in a sleepy back water.

I wouldn’t describe my GP as proactive but is LCHF freindly. His colleague in the same practice not so. So it is a case of booking with the right GP.

I find it helps to keep on top of them on a “if you don’t ask you don’t get” type of footing. :D

My FBG a couple of days ago was 6.0 at the surgery.

Used to write my Fasting Blood sugar here ages ago. Now I hardly ever measure it anymore as it's always around 6.2 and I'm on a steady LCHF diet. Anyone else sick of battling the morning dawn phenomena?
