| Getting GP's to put things in writing can cost. My GP charged me £12.50 for a letter saying I needed to take insulin on the plane with me.
The fasted solution might be to change doctors. Sounds like you need to hassle your endo as well. There is no such thing as excessive testing for a type 1.
Type 2's test less often because there sugars tend to be more stable, especially if they're not on insulin. If you're not getting wild results as a type 2 then your doctor's probably ok there.
