| My doc just doesn't understand me. I have thought that for some time now. My D is a little different than most here, missing 2/3 of the pancreas and maybe making a tad of insulin at times. My first endo came right out and told me that she did not have any patients like me and we were going to be trying many different things, some would be good others not so good. She ended up getting sick herself and is no longer in practice. My endo now just doesn't know what to do with me. He is a nice enough guy but doesn't seem to be able to figure out how to handle my levels. My A1C is never low enough for him. Anyhow I use him for writing scripts and that is about it. he reminds me of the old stereo typical parent, do as I say because I say so and doesn't want to hear any excuses(reasons). As I have said in the past, I would love to find a doc here that is also a diabetic. Thanks for posting the article.
