[QUOTE="PATRICK317, post: 862818, member: 180531"] First things first. Get your A1c tested. It should be under 7, you should be seeing a endocrinologist , this person is a diabetes doctor. Trust me I have had the disease since 2000, and by not taking care of it, you will have chronic pain, or problems down the road. You should have or buy a glucometer, most insurances will cover diabetic supplies. I test 6 to 10 times a day, everyday. I mean everyday. I have had sugars up to 500 and down to 50, so having sugars between 90 and 150 are very good for me. I would also say patient education is very important. Some great books are as follows: 1. THINK LIKE A PANCREAS. PUMPIN INSULIN. BOTTOM LINE, SELF EDUCATION IS POWERFUL. I hope this was helpful. If you are not happy, see another doctor, get a second opinion. [/QUOTE]
