Thanks for posting this! My endocrinologist is very thorough at my check-ups and orders a complete blood work up every 3 months. When I see her, we talk about a lot of different things - how are things at work, what's going on at home and in general. Sometimes when the numbers are off, it might give your doctor a clue about what's going on.

If I can make a comment to other diabetics reading this post: find an endocrinologist that you're comfortable with and can talk with about anything; if another doctor prescribes a medication my doctor prefers to see the bottle from the pharmacist rather than writing it down for her. For those of you who work, put your doctor's phone number and your emergency contact phone number on or over your desk phone. In case of an emergency it will save precious time with getting you help. A few of my co-workers know how to use my glucometer and where it is. Be sure that one or two of your co-workers know about your diabetes so they know what to do if you run into a problem.

I'll be completing your form and will bring it to my next check up. Thank you again!
