Suggest Treatment For Type 2 Diabetes
My doctor is so traditional. I was recently diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. I have no family history. I am a vegetarian. It is still hard to believe. Now i'm on Metformin, januvia, and lostartin. I feel like my doctor's passion is only to fix the symptom and not direct me to changing the course of this. Am I wrong in believing that I can do something more? Also, I have a rumbling and strange feeling in my stomach and left side of my body...is this something to worry about. I was diagnosed last Novemeber after some serious weight loss.
