Ohip form finally faxed today

Feb 26, 2009

I got my ohip form filled out.
I asked Dr Treki  (endo)  if he could fill it out because I don't have a family Dr.
He started telling me that he wants me to see a dietician first and then asked me if I have a family history of diabetes and I started crying and pulled out the pictures of my dad and showed him the pics of his legs being amputated and told him I don't want my kids to watch me go through what I seen my father go through and told him I know that I might not go through that same route but I don't want to take that chance.
So then he asked me if I want anymore kids and told him no way i'm 37 and already have 3.
He also asked me about exercise and diet and I showed him the papers that I had from t.o.p.s.(take off pounds sensibly) and it shows my weigh ins for the last 2 years. I told him that I was able to lose 30 pds and keep off for about a year and it slowly crept back up.
He told me to leave the form with him and he'll fill it out and have his secretary fax it, but he still wants me to see a dietician and made an appointment...
So I'm so happy my form is filled out and faxed as of today.
Hope he fills it out right. I'm sure he knows what he's doing. He is a specialist.
Just had to post this because I'm so happy it's finally filled out.
Oh ya he gave me a prescription for metformin and told me to start taking it. It should help me for now until the surgery.
Thanks for listening.
