Many Docs Reluctant to Prescribe Insulin

Case in point my doctor.  I have to about starve at times to get my numbers down.  It's not so much as me eating the wrong foods because I don't eat the wrong foods.  My diet is very healthy.  I barely eat anything with sugar in it.  Most of the times its a mistake on my part not knowing what the ingredients are in the food.  One or two bites and I am done.  But my doctor claims diet alone is key to control.  I asked about meds he said no.  I told him I am having to go for hours without eating.  He said "Keep up the good work"  I haven't been back to see him in three months now.  I am so upset.  Unfortunately he is the only doctor in my town.
