Newly diagnosed with Type 2 and my head is swimming - sure will be fine as I adjust - am feeling completely on my own though even though people are muttering sympathies :confused:
 
Hi Ally, welcome to the forum.

If there is anything you want to know just ask, there's always someone on the forum who'll be able to give an answer.
 
Hi Ally welcome to the forum ...its a very confusing time when you are first DX i do understand but you've found us now and so have a good look around and remember no questions are regarded silly here xx🙂
 
Hi Ally, welcome to the forum 🙂

Some very useful resources are available to help you understand your diabetes so you can learn to manage it and live life without it trying to dominate you.

Try reading Maggie Davey's letter to newly diagnosed Type 2s:

and also Jennifer's good advice:

Plus, a book I always recommend, as do many others here: Type 2 Diabetes: The First Year by Gretchen Becker (amazon link)

Please feel free to ask any questions you may have - no question is considered 'silly'!.
