Welcome you have come to the right place. Loads of help and advice on here. I am two weeks since diagnosis and I have learnt so much from the lovely people on this forum.
 
Hi Barbara , Welcome. Feel free to ask questions. We're a friendly bunch so I hope you'll soon feel comfy here .
How did you come to be diagnosed.
 
Hi and welcome to the forum.
 
Welcome to the forum, Barbara. There is certainly a lot to learn. And you're more likely to get more help here than your GP's.
(Please note I am not dissing all GP's. Some are great, but some are not clued up enough about diabetes).

Thanks for the welcome I have friends that have joined other forums for other problems and their advice was to join the diabetes forum where like you say I will get some good advice .
