[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1835866, member: 196960"] I've never been aggressive to any medical staff. I've been honest to my depriment at times but I cannot say the honesty is reciprocal from some nurses. GPs don't lie to me but diet is the excuse for when some just don't know the answers. I've exercised all my life, even low level when in pain. If I tell any medic some wouldn't believe me because I'm morbidly obese. I've eaten none sugary carbs for decades. Now less carbs but not very low carb. Like I've always said I don't feel safe 'going alone' on very low carb eating. I get dizzy, palpatations and chest pains but my thyroid and diabetes likes it. I even lose weight on insulin. I'm not going alone, I'd be silly to risk my life with 2 young kids at trying to turn around my health alone. Now I know only low carb helps my thyroid and diabetes. Ive done my best and gone as far as I can without blood tests to perfect my health. Most GPS haven't the resources for me to 'go alone' safely. Maybe they need to set up low carb clinics in GP practices so blood tests can cover insufficiencies, deficiencies and full treatment for metabolic disorders. Disorders GPs don't understand so need specialist assistance in supporting GP's patients. Like asthma etc... [/QUOTE]
