Hi All,

Just spent 3 nights at the Royal Berkshire Hospital and been diagnosed with good old type 2!

Still trying to understand how this going to change my lifestyle, but I have lost 5 pounds in weight over the 7 days.🙂

Have you been put on any medication? and/or have you been given a meter and test strips?

Have a good look around and ask as much or as little as you like.

Many people find the early days with Diabetes confusing, but there are people here who will help you get your head around things.
