[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2135046, member: 480869"] Don’t lie. It prolongs the false beliefs these hcp’s have and potentially could affect your own future care. See it as a chance to educate her perhaps. As suggested emphasis you are happy with your results and progress and that these results have come only when carbs are reduced and in fact increasing carbs makes you worse. She can hardly say you’ve failed if you’re doing better. If she is rude, dismissive or otherwise negative in a way that makes you feel bad then tell her how she is making you feel. Tell her you would like her support in the lifestyle changes that make you feel better and improve your health. Point out the nhs support Dr Unwins low carb training for health care professionals and ask her what she thought of the course? (Is she going to admit not staying up to date in her training.) Ask her why you should stop doing what works for you? Ask her why you should do the things she suggests when it makes your diabetes worse? If she wants to give you a rollicking (very unprofessional) then push back. You can do it ultra politely and nicely but you don’t have to take it. Or failing that state your case, smile politely and say nothing more. Walk out and feel sorry for her not down about yourself. You know the truth for you. [/QUOTE]
