[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, our doctors jump to medication without trying to figure out the root cause of the problem or lifestyle changes that can manage the condition. [/quote] This. My mom has diabetes. Never (even when she was prediabetic for many years before) has her doctor ever said anything to her about her diet. She isn't overweight and her mother was diabetic (and also not overweight). Her doctor retired and her new doctor just put her on medication. I begged her to change her diet and do IM. She mentioned it to her doctor and he didn't really address that as an intervention. I guess writing an Rx is just easier.[/quote]
