[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ask the GP if she thinks a cardiologist is really necessary. How high was his BP? [b]I believe it was close to 130 over something[/b][b] Sometimes ACE inhibitors like lisinopril are prescribed for renal protection in patients with DM, not so much for elevated BP. Questions he should ask GP: How high was his A1C and cholesterol? Was he spilling any protein in his urine? It sounds like the GP is very proactive which is good! [/b]Yes, well...she knows my family, which is helpful.[b][/quote] Unfortunately, we are having issues with accessing his records online so don't recall exact results - hope to resolve next week when he goes back again for 3rd visit after being on meds for a week. DH is a bit aloof and careless about his health - wouldn't have done a physical if I hadn't insisted. And refuses to do a colonoscopy. So it's on me to push and ask questions. [/quote]
