| Yes, to further what LancetChick said, don't be alarmed at first if you have blurry vision. Since you have been living with high blood sugar for a while now, when you start on insulin your eyes will start to readjust to more normal conditions and therefore you'll have blurry vision for a few days to a week. I know I freaked out at first, but this is normal.
Also, my favorite book I read when first diagnosed was called "Think Like a Pancreas". You can find it on Amazon. It explained so many think I was curious about that the CDE just doesn't explain. There's so much to learn so it will take time to absorb it all and figure it all out.
