Help!! My endocrinologist is acting physco what do i do?!? I have been going through the process of possibly being diagnosed with diabetes. I was assigned to Dr. Silverman when i was in the hospital for a kidney infection 12 days ago. When i left the hospital he had me monitoring my blood sugar because it had been in the 200's while i was in the hospital. Over the weekend it stayed around the low 200's and 100's. Concerned, he had me come in that monday for a check up. It started when the receptionist and the nurse called me a "diabetic". They took my fasting blood glucose and it was 117 and from the same finger prick they took my A1c which was 6.5%. He then told me that he was diagnosing me with type 1 diabetes and he wanted to start me on insulin immediately. I was shocked not only because being diagnosed is a huge deal but i felt like i hadn't had any tests done and i just wasn't convinced as i was still on medication and i had been sick in bed for the past two months. He started to get flustered because we weren't doing what he recommended and he told us he had NEVER had a wrong diagnoses and continued to name drop on how he was Nick Jonas's diabetes doctor before he got famous. Then when we asked how i would have got diabetes because i have no family history he told me i have "bad luck". He also threatened us by saying if my parents let me go much longer without insulin and i got sicker he would call DS (diphus) on us and force me on insulin. We then preceded to have an oral glucose test. Dr. Silverman called us later in the week with the results, this is where the story gets twisted. He told us my blood glucose before the test was 110, at 30 minutes-223, at 1 hour-257, at 1 hour and 30 minutes-106. And then there was a 5th number of 378. I only had my blood drawn 4 times yet he gave us five numbers. When we questioned him he said that the tubes must have gotten mixed up in the lab. He gave us the c-peptide which was 1.6%. And my 3 insulin levels of 5.2, 13.2, and 14.3. Then he told us again, he wanted me to come in immediately and start me on insulin. Of course, we wanted a second opinion, which we have a right to. He told us two of his partners he wanted us to go to and had them call our house and leave voicemails. My dad told him we were going to see someone outside of his practice. Dr. Silverman then said for us to tell him who we go to see for the second opinion because he wanted to call them first. We obviously wouldn't do that because we dont want the our second opinion to be influenced by his. We were looking to go to the Joslin Diabetes Center in Boston. My mom later emailed doctor silverman asking about my oral glucose test results and why they showed that i needed to be on insulin immediately. He responded back without answering my moms questions and gave us a whole different set of numbers now with my c-peptide being 0 and going back to the origninal 5 numbers he gave us saying there was no mix up. When we emailed him back and my dad also called him, he didnt answer the phone and didnt respond to the emails. He left a voicemail on my dads phone later that night saying "How dare we quesition his integrity" and ranting at my parents about how we were making the wrong decisions. Again, he wouldnt answer when we called back. This morning, my pediatrition called telling us that Dr. Silverman had called her and told her that if we didnt get a second opinion today that he was calling DS on my parents because i was extremely sick and needed to be on insulin immediately. My parents called him, and he wouldnt answer. We emailed him and he emailed these few words back, "Whats your decision". He is continuing to call my pediatrics office and asking them if we have scheduled an appointment yet. We're making an appointment today but we have no idea what is really going on with my results. He's been very sketchy the entire proccess and is continuing to give us different results. Where do i go from here? How can we get away from him?? By the way, my numbers have been in much lower ranges for the past 4 days. No numbers going over 180. And i've been checking for ketones in my urine and i've had none. Thanks to everyone just another note... My parents went and got my paperwork from the hospital today and we are waiting for the new endocronogolist to call us back about the appointment. I only got my blood drawn four times yet they came back with five results so we really have no idea if they even did the test right. Everything else in my body is perfectly normal the only thing is my blood glucose levels have a little high. Is it possible to make a diagnoses based soely on those numbers? I just dont understand because my c peptide is 1.6 which is normal. Doesnt that mean my body is producing insulin? And my correct numbers for the oral glucose test are before-110, 30 min.-203, 1 hr.-338, 1 1/2 hr.-106, and 2 hr.-370. BUT, they told me they didnt need to do the 2 hour test and so i left after the 1 and 1/2 hour, so we really have no idea where that number came from. Now, the 203 & 338 numbers are higher than normal for that test, could that indicate dibetes? Or something else? Also...my c peptide when i was in the hosptial was 6.2 and when i went for my checkup after it was 6.5. What does that mean? Thanks to everyone. I just got back from my meeting with my new endo and i am now offically diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. Its a very hard time but ill hopefully get through it.
