I hate losing doctors that I like and having to find another one. I am in the process of finding two new specialists. I wish you well.

Also, ouch on the pre diabetes diagnosis. My husband got his A1C down to normal with diet and exercise for over 25 years until a medication caused pancreatitis that killed his pancreas and made him have to go on insulin. His is one of those that refuses to follow a "diet", knows nothing about nutrition, carbs were his best friend and didn't like exercise. But he managed it.

You already have an advantage over him. YOU CAN DO THIS!
