| I'm glad your doctor got things figured out for you. Now that you know what you're dealing with you can learn how to deal with it and do well. Most of us will get to insulin eventually, you're just there sooner than you anticipated. However, you may find you have a little more food leeway with it than with oral meds or diet/exercise alone.
There are so many "insulin-experts" here that you'll have all kinds of support and information. Pick their brains and learn all you can about what you need to do to get good control.
Hang in there...you'll be fine!
