I Love My New Doctor

I had my first follow up with my new doctor. I love her just as much as the first day. My appointment was for five, I showed up before four because work was over and there was no point in going home. I figured I would just sit around and read. They called me before I could even get my book out of my purse!

She was very helpful. She asked me how things were going with the Byetta. We talked about bloodwork. I will be getting an a1C, cholesterol, grf (I think that’s what it is, kidney function), and urine test. She also added in TSH, T4, CBC, and iron after I mentioned the fatigue.

I told her that we had discussed diabetes ed and nothing had come of that. She gave me a copy of the new referral and said I might want to give them a call. This time it’s ten hours and she has offically marked it as Type 2!

Finally, I asked her if she had any of the new Contour USBs. She did not, but she gave me a script for one. I mentioned I didn’t necessary wanted to switch my strip script just yet because I wanted to see if I liked it first, so she gave me a Contour so I could use the strips.

I really like her. I don’t feel uncomfortable talking to her or asking her about specific tests. She is very attentive and always listens ot my ideas.
