Yea! I found a new endo!

So, in the last five months I have seen SIX different doctors regarding my diabetes--two primary care doctors, an endo, the resident the endo was overseeing, a pediatric geneticist, and a pediatric endo. The primary care doc referred me to the endo, the adult endo moved to the East Coast and referred me to the geneticist, who referred me to the pediatric endo...of course the pediatric endo can't keep seeing me at the age of twenty-six, so before he referred me off again, I finally found a doc outside of Kaiser that's covered on my work's PPO. He came highly rated from a nameless ex-boyfriend mother, so I guess I'll give him a shot...

I am starting to get frustrated because all the docs at work and the an urgent care doc I recently saw for some new female issues all have said, "Well, congrats on your A1C of 6.7%." I frustrated by this because (a) this is outside the endocrinology recommendation of 6% or less (b) requires practically starving myself of all carbs to maintain. I am also getting really tired of the, "But your so thin and you look healthy. How can you be a Type II diabetic?" I really hope this new endo has stricter standards. I honestly sometimes believe that because I look healthy on the outside there is a tendency by the medical profession to not take as close of a look as they need to. I REALLY need an anal endo whose just as anal as I am about getting tight control...Let's keep my fingers crossed...
