Yesterday I send my doctor the 3 monthly question for a repeat prescription.
Because the glucoselevels have been very bad, I requested a larger dose of Avandia per day.
It's just a logical consequence of a morning value of 8.7 and values of 15.7 and such.
I also explained again about the problems I had with the cholesterol medication. I got muscleproblems with the Simvastatine. I stopped and reported it to him.
Nothing happened. After a couple of weeks I tried again, had the same pain and stiffness.
Sinds june I have taken nothing.
In a way I don't mind. I've got enough pills and inhalers.
Have to put them in boxes once a week to keep track of them.
Because taking them is such a routine, I tended to take them twice, because my attention was
not fully on swallowing them.
The cholesterolmedication is something that strangely makes me very emotional. Like there is
something inside me warning me not to take them.
On the other hand, since I have diabetes, the cholesterol has risen dramatically.
Like I drink fat. LOL! ...Yuck!!!!
Well, I asked the doctor for something else, and even made a suggestion.
Apparently I'm not taken serious.
Got from the pharmacy the usual dosage of Avandia, no cholesterolstuff, and eyedrops I used last year which caused a bad case of allergy.
So before thinking the worst of the doctorsassistent, or doctor, I mailed the pharmacy and asked if they had by accident used the prescription of last year. As it was on the same date by coincidence.
Well, I'll guess the problems lies at the doctor's practice, as they haven't replied yet.
Interesting......
I guess the doc and I are in a powerstruggle again.
He only goes by labtests, and only cares for the HBA1c. Whereas I go by the values I measure at home. The metabolic/amino-acid disease I have influences the coating of the bloodcells, so to say, so the HBA1c value (the measurement of the mean glucosevalues over the last 6 to 12 weeks) is unreliable.
Adding to it the fact that ferritine-measurement should not be done within 6 weeks past a mayor infection (and I have one now!!), and I see no reason to go to the hospital for a bloodcheck.
Well, I just can't make it. In the morning i have to stay without food from 7 hour.
Being bussy with the children, guiding them through their morning moods and such... then have to bike half an hour, and wait there for another half or so.
I just can't stay sober for so long. I tried a couple of times, and sat almost crying in the cantine, eating a slice of bare bread because I went all weird.
There's no understanding for that problem at all, and I'm sick of it.
It seems everything in society is based on people who have a car and can do whatever they want.
Well, if I can't settle this situation next week, I have to go through Christmas on 4 slices of bread a day, 2 potatoes and some very cooked vegetables.
Tell me why I'm as fat as I am? I'm 90 kilos. Maybe more.
I was 55 kilo when I got diabetes.
