I am 1 1/2 weeks out from being diagnosed. My diabetic educator refined it to 1.5 and put me on insulin immediately- literally got my first shot on the spot with a 404bg.
It is all new and overwhelming. I am glad to find all these sources of support and info.
This is an article I found helpful

Ultimately, I think you should get to a diabetic educator who focuses on that part of your care and has more depth of knowledge.
Good luck!
