lost in this world
 

Because I have state insurance my doctor doesn't spend time explaining anything. I was diagnosed Monday the 13th. Will anyone please take the time and tell me what are the healthy numbers for my glucose. What foods do I stay away from? What do I do to survive?

your pharmacy is your new best friend ! They actually know more about tools than dr . Also check to see if your dr has a health / diabetes counselor.

Read through the first three threads in the Type 2 Section, when you get a chance, if you have not already done so. These threads will most-likely help you a lot. Self education is one of the keys to successful management of your diabetes, along with a healthy / sensible diet and exercise. Basically, diabetes requires a life-style change for the better. Good luck with your control and management.
