Guyk's interview posted by VA Joe

Guyk was interviewed by VA JOE and the interview was posted on 8-20-07. He is very proud of this. He made me a copy of it.

We got his blood test today but the doctor failed to request an A1C which is a status report of his diabetes. He has an appointment coming up next week so hopefully we will get that fixed. We didn't get the x-rays done today but we have an appointment for tomorrow. Eventually we will get this new doctor thing broke in.

I am so ready for fall weather.

If we don't I will get a new doctor

Sounds like you need a new doctor. Why would he bother with blood work and not do an A1C on someone who is diabetic?

GUYK said...

Don't make sense to me either.

I hope the A1C reports is good. Very good indicator of how the blood sugar is doing. I hope he eats right and checks his blood sugar regularly each day.

Temp has been triple digits here in Tennessee for the past 10 days. HOT HOT HOT. Many people have died from the heat.

debbie, I am one of the exceptions..I have been diabetic for over 15 years and still have both feet. It is tough but most of the time I keep my blood sugar under control. It just pisses me off that a quack doesn't care enough to insure the A1c was done..last time I had it checked was over six moths ago..5.9 which is good. But I prefer to get it done at least every six months and every 90 days is the recommendation by most medics.

Hell, I thought was Sweetthing's blog! Why are you moderating all the comments, guyk?

I enjoyed the interview. It had the same feel as his blog, listening to your wiser(?) elders talk about whatever topics on their mind.

P.S. I try to swing by and I'll give you points for regular postings. That's the hardest part for me, I'll post three things in one day and then disappear for a week. Hard to get consistent hits with that system.
