Yes my grandmother died from complications due to diabetes as well (my doctor was hers also). Plus my grandfather is currently on dialysis cause his kidneys arent the greatest.
I also have been reading and doing research. I am down 4 pounds already and my blood sugars (fasting) have come down alot since i started this new diet.
I called my family doctor cause i needed a referral to go see an endo, his response was "we will talk about it at your next appointment". That was step one towards finding a new doctor. Whats the harm in seeing a endo? Finally after alot of *****ing to them on my part they sent the endo my file and i have an appointment to see her in october!
I just got a phone call from a new family doctor, one who specializes in diabetes. I go to see her on the 29th. So i am pretty excited about that.
