My doc spent the entire first year after my diagnosis telling me I was testing too often and eating way too low-carb (we hadn't gone into the high-fat part yet - heheh
), but he couldn't argue with the numbers either. And I tried to be nice - I took his damned statins for that whole year. Then I decided the statin side effects were too dangerous, so I stopped those and have refused them ever since. After another year or so, my lipids had squared up beautifully and he was overwhelmed that I'd done it with only LCHF and without statins. It was prob'ly into the third year when he finally asked me what exactly DO I eat! (I said 'bacon, bacon & more bacon!
)
He's been our doc for 20+ years, specializes in geriatrics and is the best doc in the world. He has come around to the LCHF ethic and is my staunchest defender now. Lord I appreciate a doc who keeps an open mind!
