It's a long way from .4 percent to 7 and I told him I hate when people piss down my back and try and tell me it's raining. I have a foot swelling condition but he finds nothing wrong with my blood sugar or heart. He wants the investigative probe. Be skeptical of your doctors ladies and gentlemen. They work for money.

Doctors are experts, but they aren't always right. Don't be afraid to respectfully question your doctor if something seems off to you. Don't be afraid to get other opinions. It's your body and your life at the end of the day.
I had a motorbike accident years ago. Lost alot of skin sliding on the road. I had 3 surgeons all recommend skin grafts for my hip even though it was healing fine.
Had a visit from the senior surgical fellow who advised against skin grafts and dressed down the 3 surgeons. "So your going to take a graft from his other hip so he can't even lay down propperly for two weeks, so his other hip will heal a little quicker but then he's still gotta wait 2 weeks for the hip you took the graft from to heal???"
I'm paraphrasing but you get the idea
The word "expert" has become a political tool in the last 20 years.
Theoretically, SOME are experts. But many of them are nowhere NEAR the "expert" level. Yet they all believe they are. And society treats each and everyone like they are.
