@trishanna- Good morning. I would be very confused if given 3 different restrictive diets by 3 different doctors. May I ask what they are for? Does each doctor know what the others have prescribed?

@merpreb Think they know but "forget." So, for example, doctor treating me for diabetes is only interested in my A1C, and has in fact told me she will leave my kidney care to my nephrologist. And both of them ignore my IBS, which is the problem giving me the most trouble. Not on the list, but of vast importance, is my husband's dining. I was told to go to my dietician, who would discuss my first three diets, but would not discuss how I might incorporate his dining needs without a doctor's order. I find that shopping (delivery), cooking and meal-planning is getting beyond me, but doctors don't talk to me, or more importantly, don't listen!!
