Hi

Hope everyone is good.

I have recently been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in the last 4 weeks. Really new to all this.

Hello JoPC. Welcome to the forum. It can be very worrying to say the least when you’re first diagnosed . Firstly I would like to try and reassure you that with the right info and a bit of work from yourself, Diabetes is a condition that can be well managed.
Their is an awful lot of misinformation out there and sadly quite a lot of conmen too, so you have come to the right place for info and cyber support from people who live with this condition, so ask any questions about diabetes and we’ll do our best to help.

When you have some time have a read of

I am 2 years from diagnosis, and have normal blood tests. I stay away from carbs, starches and sugars. eating low carb foods, and am just fine.
