Welcome to the forum. Many people find it quite a shock though sometimes they suspect something is not right but non the less it is a lot to get your head around and the support is a bit hit and miss from some surgeries.
Would you like to say a bit about your diagnosis, what your HbA1C is and have you been given any medication and advice about modifying your diet. All that will help people make appropriate comments and advice.
Have a look at the Learning Zone as there is lots of information there and also this link may help you with some ideas for making some dietary changes, it is a low carbohydrate approach which many people find successful. https://lowcarbfreshwell.co.uk/
Do come back with any questions you have.
 
Welcome to the forum @Car

Glad you have found us!

It can be a tricky time, and it really helps to have some friendly folks alongside who ‘get it’.

Fire away with any questions you have - nothing will be thought of as too obvious or ‘silly’
