Hi all,

Looking for advice as to questions I should ask my primary care physician on my first visit to him since being diagnosed.

I do plan on asking him about Metformin and if it would be appropriate for me to be on it. Will also show him my log book and will discuss my prescriptions.

And I will ask him to do the Micoalbuminuria test.

Thanks

Hi Dale,
a new Hba1c (?)
All your cholesterol values as T2D is both in carbohydrates and fat (?)

I don't recall them off the top of my head, but my cholesterol numbers were on target.

I will summarize in a later post the results of the appointment.


I wish you lots of success :)
Gys
