The only doctor I've seen since I started this was my primary care physician who said "Excellent." She knows I'm being very proactive and actually asked ME at my 6 month check-up if there were any tests I wanted run. That kind of made me chuckle.
She's the one, though, who told me the OGTT indicated insulin resistance, and I needed to cut my carbs to 60g/day or less. The integrative medicine doc who ordered the test at my request didn't know what to make of the results.
As far as the neuropathy goes, my PCP is yielding to my neuro on it. I won't see him again until October. I've considered going to another one too just to get another opinion. I only live 30 minutes from Johns Hopkins, and I know there's a neuro down there doing research on neuropathy with even mildly elevated glucose issues.
