Yes, you may consult me regarding this. Since you have already been evaluated by a diabetologist and GLP-1 therapy has been suggested, I can review your previous treatment and reports and assess whether GLP-1 therapy is appropriate for you.
Please bring your recent FBS/PPBS, HbA1c, body weight/BMI, current diabetes medications, kidney and liver function reports, along with details of any other medical conditions.
Based on your diabetes control, weight, medical history and previous treatment, we can discuss the appropriate GLP-1 option, expected benefits, possible side effects and a suitable dose-escalation plan. GLP-1 treatment should be individualized rather than started solely on the basis of a previous recommendation.
You can book a consultation with me and bring your previous prescriptions/reports for review.
Next Steps
Please bring your latest HbA1c, fasting/post-meal glucose, creatinine/eGFR, liver function tests and lipid profile, if available, along with your current medication list.
Health Tips
Do not start or change the GLP-1 injection dose without medical supervision. The choice of drug and dose depends on your diabetes control, weight, kidney/liver status, other medications and tolerability.
