Subjective

64-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and rate-controlled atrial fibrillation presents for routine endocrine follow-up. She reports good adherence to metformin and weekly semaglutide, with home fasting readings ranging from 150 to 180 mg/dL over the past six weeks. Denies polyuria, blurred vision, chest pain, or palpitations. Reports increased walking — approximately four kilometres, five days per week — and a deliberate reduction in evening carbohydrate intake.

Objective

  • Blood pressure 146/90 seated, repeat 142/88 after five minutes rest.
  • Weight 171 lb, down 6 lb from the 90-day prior measurement.
  • Cardiovascular: irregularly irregular rhythm, no murmur, no peripheral edema.
  • Feet: intact monofilament sensation bilaterally, no ulceration or deformity.

Assessment

Type 2 diabetes remains above target with HbA1c trending from 7.6 % to 8.1 % over two quarters despite documented lifestyle improvement and confirmed adherence. Hypertension is suboptimally controlled and likely contributing to overall cardiovascular risk. Atrial fibrillation remains rate controlled on apixaban with no bleeding events. Hyperlipidemia is at goal.

Plan

  • Escalate semaglutide to 1.0 mg weekly after a further four weeks at the current dose, contingent on tolerance.
  • Continue metformin ER 500 mg twice daily without change.
  • Recheck blood pressure within 30 days; consider adding a thiazide if readings remain above 140/90.
  • Repeat comprehensive metabolic panel and HbA1c in three months.
  • Referral placed to clinical nutrition for structured carbohydrate counting.
