Default A Good Doc.

Wow, thanks for such a quick response.

I have had what the majority would call the best of the best endo doc. However he is not pro low carb in the least. He just kept telling me to "Think like a pancreas" Well, duh. If wishes were fishes the sea would be full.

I am sooooo frustrated. I thought in the beginning that there would be a wealth of really good medical support out there. I have learned that for the most part we are on our own.

This site forum has given me more support than anyone or any so called diabetes education facility. They all advocate the 60 percent from carb thing.

Well I don't need to tell you how detrimental that is. Last night I treated myself to mashed potatoes and perhaps (oh, yeah, right) a bit more wine that I would normally consume.

As a result I have craved and caved. I feel so bloated and fat.

Arrrgggghhh, ok now I will get back on track.

Thank you so much, I really get down on myself for not "managing" well.

The med people seem to think it is soooooo easy. HAH! Guess what.... they don't have the same problems we do.


Kristine, thank you for being there. It means the world to me.

Cheers, AJ

p.s. I will have a boo at the site you recommended

p.p.s. I meant to ask are you doing the insulin thing? I am according to the doc and would like to explore options. How do you deal with it?
