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.
Same here my dr called and said take two pills. Had open heart surgery back in July . Just found out I have COPD what's next ?
