Talking Hello
I was diagnosed one week ago with T2 and am learning how much "fun" my new club is... Doc put me on Glyburide and Metformin and advised me to avoid processed sugars and test my blood often to get an idea of how I am doing and will hook me up with a diatician etc in a couple of weeks. My H1AC came back at a 15 .


Oh yeah this is really just a post ! so

Welcome to the family, Grab....so sorry it took diabetes to get you here. I was diagnosed 2.5 weeks ago and know it can feel very overwhelming. Please feel free to post as often as you like and ask lots of questions. This is a great group of people who are always eager to support and encourage.
