Guest guest Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Congratulations! Not necessarily for firing your doctor, although many diabetics need to consider that, but more so just because it shows your interest in being proactive. And that is key for proper diabetic self-management. Dave The way of a fool seems right to him, but a wise man listens to advice. (Proverbs 12:15) a Christmas present to myself Hi all, just wanted to share something with you. I've fired my doctor and am getting a new doctor on January 6th. I'm excited about it because in his profile he says he likes to work with diabetic patients and that is one of his specialities. I'm hoping that he'll be more proactive with me in building my team.

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 The time to fire a doctor is when he is not working actively with you to set goals, recommend therapies and diets and restrictions that actually help you. All these things should be measureable and their results must also be measureable, just like your bs level is measureable. If not, you will not know whether or not you are making progress or regressing. a Christmas present to myself Hi all, just wanted to share something with you.
