Just came back from my review of my latest HbA1c results .
Seen a different doc this time , not seen this one before .
Told me I should only get HbA1c once a year and there’s no need to be testing all the time as it will only upset me . I told him . If I didn’t test and know what was goin on in my body , I’d be a lot more upset . Then he tried to get me on statins as my cholesterol was at 6.3 which was lower than the last time . I told him no to them as they raise my bs and I’d rather stay of them as long as possible . To be told I’m at as much risk of a heart attack as someone who’s already had one . This difference between him and my regular go who is like . My god well done and keep up the good work .
Rant over . Why do these docs not get it
48 to 38 in 9 months and he’s tellin me to change what I’m doin
