I see. Does he see an endocrinologist or primary for diabetes care? I ask, because sometimes the endocrinologist may be able to offer more specialized care for the diabetes. I realize many T2 see their primary. Also, sometimes with T2, blood sugar levels sometimes increase for varying reasons (meds, injections, infection, etc.) or for no known reason.

He is seeing his primary for diabetes care, which I am coming to the conclusion that we need to change. Since the kidney issue suddenly came up. I'm not confident with his primary right now, especially since I had to ask for a referral to a Nephrologist.
I will start looking for an Endocrinologist as well...at least finding out who is in our area and reading up on their history/credentials. I like that you point our the "specialized care" aspect for diabetes. I hadn't thought about that before. Thank you for that.
