I just got home from my appointment with my new endocrinologist. WOW, that's how I remember a doctor appointment should be. She took her time with me. Over an hour appointment and the doctor told me she wished there was more time because she wanted to make sure we clear about the plan moving forward. I didn't even get this much attention when things were life-threatening.
I'm back on some medication for diabetes as my fasting blood sugars keep going up. A1C is at 6, so we are going back on Metformin but only 1000 mg total per day. Also, because my TSH is back up, she is increasing that medication. My B12 was low, so she wants me to take a supplement for that. She looked at me and said there was a reason I was having problems getting the weight off, moving, and with fatigue. It feels good to hear that there are reasons. As you recall from a previous post, I had problems walking around a hotel, well no freakin' kidding. Now I know why.
Feels fantastic to have a plan. 😊
