Is Your Doctor Doing Enough To Help You Lower Your Blood Sugar?

Most Diabetics find out the first time that they have high blood sugar after their doctor runs a simple blood test and tells you, “You have high blood sugar…You are diabetic, take this prescription.”  Your doctor may have also told you to watch your diet and to exercise….that’s pretty much how Type 2 Diabetes is “managed” with Western Medicine.  The rest is pretty much left up to you to figure out.  You feel lost, but you do your best to “watch your diet and exercise,” but the next time you go to get your blood sugar tested again, your doctor wants to increase your medication or add another medication.  I’ve had patients walk in with lists and bags of medication.  The lists of medications can be as long as 27 different medications!  That’s a full time job on its own.  I talked with another patient whose doctor had placed a dialysis portal in this patient “preparing” him for dialysis.  Am I the only one…or is this just nuts?!  You need a doctor on your side that is dedicated to finding out the cause of your high blood sugar and doing everything possible to help you REVERSE it, not just artificially control it with medication.  Don’t accept another medication as the answer to this disease.  If you feel your doctor isn’t doing enough to make positive changes toward health, you may be a good candidate for our treatment.
