Question:
Should I seek another opinion- I feel I am not getting adequate information.

My BMI is 43.2, I have sleep apnea and using a C-Pap, have IDDM II, have shortness of breath on exertion, and have arthritis in my joints ( with past surgeries for the joints). My doc want me to go on a liquid diet for three months , after numerous other diets with no positive results. Should I seek another physician?    — Diane G. (posted on July 20, 2002)

Find a NEW PCP. Yours is really not knowledgable and even if you loose weight on liquids you will likely regain all you los and some extra. You are being set up for failure and weight gain.

I think we all know how the liquid diet will end up. Find another PCP ASAP!!!! Good luck to you! :-)
