A Visit to the Endo

Over the last year John (that boy that calls himself my husband) and I have been through a lot of changes, diet, carb counting, and most importantly a new endocrinologist and diabetes care team.  I can't stress enough that finding a good endo makes a world of difference.  She is awesome.  Unlike the Dr. we were assigned by the hospital, she takes her time, listens to our concerns and is willing to help me live a "normal" life.

I had my appointment with her yesterday and was pleasantly surprised that my A1C was 5.7.  All of the days that I struggled with post breakfast highs and leaking pump sites I thought I was a complete diabetes failure.  She had a few minor pump changes and sent me on my way with paperwork to have blood drawn.  I guess I wasn't doing so poorly after all.
