hello
 

60 year old female type2 on metformin 1000 mg daily and glipizide 5 mg daily. I am a registered nurse working in a rehab facility. Though I was diagnosed in 1998 I remained in denial till last fall when my blood sugars kept staying in the 200 range. I am more serious about it now but not fanatical like the people on the ADA forum. I am hoping to have some questions answered and to offer encouragement to others here.

Welcome to the Forum! :)

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.
