I will call the Quack in the morning and get some suggestions for finding
the appropriate dietician. He is really a nice fella and quite a good Doc

Thanks for all the tips and suggestions.
This is not all that uncommon, and you shouldn't call him a quack. Most
family practice doctors are not diabetes specialists, and there's a lot of
complicated information out there, some of it is even contradictory. That's
because everyone's needs and metabolism is different in some way. I can eat
things that would probably send Julie's BG into a spike, and possibly vice
versa. That's just how it is, and that's one thing that makes it difficult
to develop a real across-the-board standard of treatment for diabetes.
