Insanely bad doctor, wow. Losing a ton of weight super quick is like one of the biggest symptoms of diabetes
I wish I'd figured it out myself. One problem was I was recovering from Celiac, and tried a very restricted diet, and a liquid diet - which actually worked when I started doing chicken in a blender (which is much better than it sounds, especially when you've been starving for 4 months). Tell a doctor 'I was starving and I went to this weird restricted diet' and it seems they have a really hard time with the order of things. Reality was "I was starving and in pain and then I tried this restricted diet" and they hear "you were on this restricted diet, and then you were starving and in pain".
Do you know what they call doctors that barely passed medical school, at the bottom of their class?
Doctors.
Also C-doctors
