I had to see the certified diabetes educator again this week. So she is impressed with my weight loss and blood pressure, looks at my food journal and says, you aren't eating enough carbs!!!!!! You need 45-60 per meal at least 180 total per day. I average a 100 per day mostly lunch and dinner (I can eat brown rice and sweet potatos for dinner with no probelm). She had uploaded my meter and printed out the numbers so I said well, look what my blood sugar does in the mornings when I increase the carbs. So her response:
Let's increase your metformin to 500 twice a day instead of once and eat more carbs!!!!!!! Seriously??????
I did put on my bigger girl panties and ask why when carbs are the enemy? Her response, They are not the enemy, they give us energy. BLAH BLAH BLAH
Can't wait to be able to move on when I see a new doctor (an endo)in September.
How do I get a signature at the bottom of my page like everbody else? I want to be cool too!
