Since becoming a patient with my current endocrinologist; Dr. Doshi; at Cleveland Clinic I have lost one hundred pounds. My A1C is within normal parameters. High blood pressure...gone!  Joint pain...gone!  Diabetes...gone!  I feel like a million bucks! Through diet and exercise this is possible, but I can't quit. I have to let this be a lifetime goal. I can't go back to stuffing my face with junk food. If I do the diabetes will return. Yes, I know there is no cure for diabetes, but there is hope!
