You've definitely got a lot of faith in doctors. Good for you.

I don't share your faith. The important thing is to hunt for the right doctor and that's a job in itself (difficult where I live). I think "see a specialist" is a better idea.

2 years ago when my doctor ordered some liver tests he threw in a BG test. My FBG was in the mid-200's. After I went over the results at home, I had to go back to the doctor to ask him what was up with the high BG. He didn't even mention it when I was in his clinic, and most would consider FBG in the 200's as fairly significant.

When someone tells me "see a doctor", it reminds me of the waivers you sign when you join a gym...see your doctor first before you partake in an exercise program.
