I don't know about Queensland, but Jean - take the time and head down to Sydney!! I saw Dr Andrew Lowy several times at the St Vincent's Endocrine clinic. He isn't entirely sure about Metformin, but he was happy enough to prescribe it for me once I requested it. And, now that he has seen my success, he may be more inclined to prescribe it again. I also saw a Dr Chisholm there, who was good. Actually I believe Dr Lowy has since moved to Concorde hospital as part of his rotation, but either seeing him there or going to the clinic is a great move. Both these Drs were GREAT just in that my amazing size (I weigh 145 kilos) didn't faze them in the slightest. They really were concerned with me as a person, and did everything possible to help. And Dr Lowy is really cute :) But I didn't say that cuz I'm married! ANYWAY... I think that here in Australia we have to work especially hard at keeping ourselves informed and being assertive with our doctors, no matter where we go. But if you are looking for a tip ... ? :) Take care and good health to both of you!
