Hi and welcome to the forum.
Have you been diagnosed long and would you like to tell us how your diagnosis came about ie symptomatic and if so which symptoms or perhaps identified during a routine blood test/MOT or perhaps, but hopefully not, a hospital admission.
Do you know what your HbA1c result was at diagnosis or most recent? This is the blood test used to diagnose and monitor your progress with diabetes management and what if any medication you have been prescribed for it.
Feel free to ask whatever questions you have. That is what the forum is here for.
