Hi @carolroy52 and a very warm welcome to the forum.

We'd love to know a bit more about yourself and your relationship to diabetes. How long have you had T2 and Cushing's? How are you managing you T2?

I am sure there are plenty on the forum who have knowledge and experience of your situation so please do feel free to ask any questions and I'm sure someone will get back to you!
 
Hi carolroy52, welcome to the forum.

Just popping in to say hi, glad you've found us! There isn't a lot of info on managing both conditions, did your doctor give you any specific advice?

Hopefully there will be some one who as experience with both but do feel free to post any specific concerns you have and we'll do our best to help.
 
Welcome to the forum @carolroy52

We can certainly help you with information about T2, and it may be that someone on here is dealing with both. If you want to tell us a bit about how you are managing your Diabetes it will help us tailor our advice to you.

There is a lot of information on this site and you can find specific information about T2 in the learning zone (a tab at the top of the page or in the menu (…). For a bit more background information, the ‘useful links’ thread is a mine of helpful information - useful-links-for-people-new-to-diabetes

Members here frequently recommend Maggie Davey’s Letter and Gretchen Becker’s book, as very helpful starting points.

These won’t be specific to your needs but I hope that they can help you in finding what works for you.
