Just one month left to go until my endocrinology visit and my last visit with this Doctor. I love my Doctor, and I trust everything she says for me to do. Most of what I know about my Diabetes comes from her, and anything she’s ever told me to do has worked. I’m going to miss seeing her, but I no longer need a pediatric Doctor. I’m kind of nervous about a new Diabetes Doctor, but very excited, I only hope I like them and that they are happy with my control. We’ll see in about 4 months from now perhaps. I work hard for my control not only for myself and my body’s sake(after all, you take care of your body, it takes care of you!), but for my diabetes Team as well. If I’m in good health, it makes it easier on them to care for me.
I only hope I can reach my A1C goal of the 5 range. It’s been 5 years since the last time I was in the 5.0 range. This time last year I was at 7.3, and only getting worse. The highest it’s been since diagnosis was 7.5, and even if that isn’t that bad, I really couldn’t accept it any longer. I’n healthier now and my family is happy for me. My Doctor is proud, because I know for Doctors it must make them happy to see they’re directing someone’s health in the right direction. Don’t you agree? Last time I was at 6.0 .
Anyway, this is short, but please hope/pray/whatever it is that you do for me that I will reach my goal! And if I do not reach it, I’ll be disappointed, but there’s only one way to take that kind of slap in the face as a Diabetic. Try harder.
