The result of my passage through the private endo

The first could not put it before Internet problems, here is the first the analysis:

Basal glucose ----- 289

hemoglobin
JDS/JSCC (Japanese calibration) 8.9% well controlled 6.6%
NGSP/DCCT (US CALIBRATION) 9.2% well controlled 7.0%

endocrine:

After telling him what happened to me to give him the papers, I doubted the results of the Analysis and the data of fasting measurements that it could be type 1, but I was not sure since well for the dates that were (between fairs and Christmas) andA bad carelessness and that have passed many years to be still honeymoon, I changed the treatment that the header put me and said a phrase that I read here, some doctors believe endocrine. In 2 months I see me again to finishto make sure seeing how this treatment is going.

treatment:

Half of metformin with Zomarist's breakfast with metformin food.

Header treatment:

3 metformin a day

result:

private endo:

I have gone from not going out of 200 on 110 and 120, during the 85-110 day. And not having punished the stomach.

of header:

Do not see result in the treatment and on top of having the stomach crushed all day.

I am very happy since I am returning to my place with less medication and I do not punish my stomach, the endocrine cost me 80 euros and analysis 40. It is the best investment I made and I willI ask everything I explain myself well and not the 5 min of the header doctor.

P.D.The endocrine told me that Zomarist is a new medication and it is quite good and my opponion is that I stay short I noticed the change from the first day I start to take it.

There would be many things to say about type 2 diabetes but one of them is that there are several possible treatments:


  • - Diet only.
    - Diet + oral antidiabetics of the sensitizer type (such as metformin).
    - Diet + oral antidiabetics of the sulfonylureas type.
    - Diet + oral antidiabetics of the type DPP-4 inhibitors.
    - Diet + Combinations of oral antidiabetics.
    - Diet + basal insulin.
    - Diet + basal insulin + oral antidabetics.
    - Diet + basal insulin + combinations of oral antidiabetics.
    - And if none of that goes then a type 2 can receive the same treatment as a type 1 diabetic: multiple insulin injections (which is usually in the most normal case a basal insulin + another insulin for meals) or if theinsulin bomb case.

Possibly there are other treatments but already simply with those one you can get an idea that finding the right treatment for a type 2 diabetic can be a difficult task because they are tested oral antidiabetics and/or combinations, the matter gives for a lot for there.Many oral antidiabetics and is as difficult for a header as for an endocrine doctor (although for the latter it should be easier since he is a specialist doctor).

To see what treatment he prescribes you one and the other:


  • - Head doctor: Take 3 metformin per day (sensitizer).

    - Endocrine doctor: Take metformin measurement to breakfast (sensitizer) + Take metformin measure).


There is not so much difference in the type of treatment, one is to be only with a sensitizer and the other is to be with a combination of oral antidiabetics (the same sensitizer + a DPP-4 inhibitor) although the second seems to be clearly better.

The unique all it has done is to try another combination of oral antidiabetics and it seems that it has found the key, what I mean is that although the private endocrine would not have found the appropriate combination, it would have charged you equally, you would be exactly the same,with a nose span and with 120 euros less.

I am very glad that someone has found a treatment that is also going to you but neither so much nor so bald, reading you would seem that the endocrine are all very good and the doctors are all very bad ... unfortunately there are endocrinecalamities

No I do not say that it is better or worse one or the other, the header that I had was not a jewel, finally the one that had before and that is much better worried more. Then the saturation is to have to have to have toWaiting for 1 week to catch appointment as I happened to me but that is no longer the fault of the doctors. On the subject of the endo I have been lucky and that I already referred to me that at least I explained and paying attention was quite not likeThe substitute he had of header. But good is everything returning to his place and I am happy.

Jose, I'm very happy with your news ... I am not surprised that you are happy, often a joy that you begin to see that the treatment is working ...
A hug.

There are no private or public doctors, there are good, regular and worse.And there are numerous examples in both areas.The level of public medicine (Spanish) was not reached by private throughout its history.The Public Medicine Training Program is difficult to overcome, and the transit from public to private, once it has been learned, is the norm.Hopefully, although I fear that it will not be so, the public health lasts for a long time because if the current drift continues, we will not have to save for retirement, which also, but to deal with the disease

There are no private or public doctors, but the IDMPO dedicated to solving a problem is very different.Our header doctor is great but the waiting time, an average of one hour and the time in consultation, 10 minutes does not give to treat something so complicated

Well, you can walk the city in a taxi or on a bus.Of course, one procedure is more comfortable than another, but more expensive.Of course, in the end, the route is the same
