Hi Terry, I'm new here, too.
I'm sorry you're feeling so alone. I understand what you mean. My doctor told me I have diabetes over the phone and didn't tell me anything about what to do other than to take a pill 2x a day and come back in a month. I felt so lonely and scared and I had no idea what to do.
You might want to check and see if there is a support group or a diabetes education class you can take at your local hospital. Your doctor may have to refer you if there is a class, but he/she should be willing to do that if you ask.
There is support out there, you may just have to look for it.
