Lisa, my doctor is one of those who listened to me when I told him I was LC. He gave me a list of supplement information I would need to ensure I was getting the proper vitamins, etc.

He also listened to me when I decided not to go on HRT for menopause and told me that if things like Dong Quai and St. John's Wort was working for me then by all means to continue it.

I'm fortunate that he is a doctor who is always studying and reading and ready to listen to me when I tell him what messages my body is sending me. And one of those messages was that my body must not eat a high carbohydrate diet.

You're right of course about not all doctors thinking that way and how nice for you to have a doctor and a doctor/father who have had other schooling on diet & diabetes. There really are some good doctors out there. I suppose I was at first only thinking about the pill pushing doctors, forgetting of course about my very own doctor. Is my face red ... ?
