I know exactly what you are saying. I'm going through the "I'm tired of this stupid disease. Let it just go away" syndrome. In fact, I finally made another appointment for one I missed two months ago. I know the damage I'm doing. And I know what my doctor will say ---:"Diabetes is out to get you. It does not take a vacation. Don't let it win." He is so right. I know it and everyone else knows it, but I keep slipping off the wagon because he the way my medicine and food plan is set up, it is just too hard. Especially when I listen to so many easier (not easy) ways from all of you. A little slip and I'm up in the 300's. The meds just have to be adjusted. (How I rant and rave. Sorry!)

I feel that I am not getting enough help from him so I'll go with my list of what I feel I need, my eating journal and numbers and see if he'll make some changes. If not I'll be driving into Yakima (1 1/2 hrs.away) or Portland (2 1/2 hrs away) for an endo. I'm sure that will be the outcome so I should anyway, but I don't want to without telling him why the change.
