Your Diabetes Care Team is made up of many people-including you (USA)

[Northerner]

Whether you are living with Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes, you need help and support to live well with your disease. Living well, starts with you. You are the most important member of your diabetes care team. After all, you are the one who is affected by diabetes and cares for it every day. Only you know how you feel and what you're willing and able to do. You make and eat the foods on your meal plan. You take the medicine or inject the insulin. You do the exercise. You check your blood sugar (glucose) levels and keep track of the results. And of course, you are the first to notice any problems. Your diabetes care team depends on you to talk to them honestly and to tell them how you feel.
