| My doctor didn't help me either when I was diagnosed. He gave me some articles to read, a prescription for a monitor and Metformin, and said he'd see me in a month. I was so upset that I cried for two weeks!! I finally found a wonderful nurse that specializes in Diabetes education and she was wonderful. She told me I could actually eat anything as long as I watched the portions and tested two hours after the first bite to see how it affected by BS. This really helped me learn what I could eat, and what was not good to eat. I found out that I could eat carbs,but not very much. I think testing is the best way to see how different foods affect your blood sugar. Good luck!
