I was dx'ed with IR in January 2003. The doctor in question was from Iran and

had gone to med school in Moscow. I'd guess she was about the same age as myself

(45, er, 46 in a month!).

On another positive note - my AVS experience the week before last at UCLA was

the opposite of what you are describing, actually. I'd say I was almost old

enough to be the mother of many of those " young whippersnappers " with M.D.

degrees who I dealt with, and they were all so polite and interested and

involved with my case. I was really, really impressed!

This one was excellent. For example, she understood that " calories in, calories

out " was an oversimplification and that it was more complicated than that for

those of us with insulin resistance. She helped me when conventional wisdom

failed, so really, how she got her degree is less important than how she used

her brain IMO.

It appears that the American governance system allows and grants them medical license to practice in USA and dx infidels and prescribe medicines to "Death to America" population! How come?

In Iran it used to be possible to buy your medical degree. Suspect same in Moscow.

I have worked with many of these folks and trained some.

Some are excellent and some seem to have skipped all the classes.

We don't produce enough Drs to supply the demand. We import about 15,000 a year to do internships which we need the cheap labor. This is a tragedy for the country from which they come.

My PA was not diagnosed for 9 years by one such imported physician from 3rd world country to do cheap industrial slavery work here....How stupid are we to vote for our politicians to facilitate such imports...then we deserve our own punishments!

My

endo from Pakistan was completely incompetent. She never listened to my heart,

ever. Finally, my husband listened

and his jaw dropped. I was skipping

2 - 3 beats every 13. I called her

and she called in Toprol XL. Never

saw me until months later. At that

meeting, she couldn't find my file in her computer. I got a prescription for Inspra and RAN.

My last doctor, a corn-fed white American from the midwest, educated in American

medical school, diagnosed my PA as " anxiety " and " a typical middle-aged woman

problem " when I presented with low K and palpitations.

Race, ethnicity, and citizenship have little to do with it.

Its in the training. He likely skipped class that day.It is no longer mandatory to go to all medical school classes.

I hope Dr. Grim with his new membership in US HTN Association can arrange for an nation-wide written+oral examination of all doctors and then the incompetent ones be all deported to Pakistan and placed inside Osama's mansion before blown up.

I was put in hospital for 8 days with intake and output measured. Intake was

calculated to be 300 calories a day - diet was hospital administered, confined

to bed, no visitors permitted. I gained 15 lbs in those 8 days. Was not on IV

so gain not due to the drip. Now I average 600 calories a day - 5'1 " and 195

lbs. I pole walk 5 kms a day in 42 minutes or less. Also my pedometer

indicates an additional 12,000 steps or more per shift I work which is three

shifts a week. What level of calories do you suggest for me as obviously I am

overeating.

It is always calories in = calories out.

The issue is to find the level that reduce your weight.

Eat less mostly.

We used to do this at Duke as well on the Rice Diet Ward-900 calories.Those who did not lose weight were doing one or more of several things1. Going out for pizza.2. Going to the food machines3. One was even lowering a basket out of the window with a rope and "friends" were packing it with goodiesIn your case I expect the calories were not correct. I know of not hospital that will fee a 300 calorie diet for 8 days.So I recommend that you have your team write you as the first ever human that did not lose weight on 300 calories a day.

You must have some very good genes and we need to find out what the are. Maybe you can patent them to use in Ethiopia or Sudan or other places when people are starving.

I've had excellent doctors from other countries and horrible ones. My rule is if thief grasp of English isn't strong then how can they understand what I'm saying. Also if I get the rant on how Americans just like to be sick- I actually had one say that over and over. He didn't ask where I was born idiot!

Including the incompetent corn-fed white American ones, I hope.

I've had excellent doctors from other countries and horrible ones. My rule is if thief grasp of English isn't strong then how can they understand what I'm saying. Also if I get the rant on how Americans just like to be sick- I actually had one say that over and over. He didn't ask where I was born idiot!

Including the incompetent corn-fed white American ones, I hope.

Ummmm - interesting as it is to read a little insight into the minds of middle

America, I too suspect race and ethnicity has very little to do with a doctor's

ability. Having never been seen by an all-American doctor, I can't guarantee

that they're not streets ahead of all others but I've very rarely had an issue

with any of the doctors I've ever seen. From whatever background...

And given that my diagnosis here (by doctors whose first language is not

English) was really excellent, I'd just like to put a vote in the 'foreigners

rock' box.
