I am finding it quite difficult to come to terms with my diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes.
I coasted along for a few years as Borderline and this is where I went wrong. I didn't test my bloods and before I knew it my Blood sugar had got really high.
I do not find it easy to tell people about my diabetes but when I do have to tell someone, I can't cope with them telling me all the horror stories about people they know who have had huge problems. I know they only mean well but when you are trying hard to come to terms with your new situation. Horror stories don't help one little bit. This forum has kept me sane and I would like to thank everyone for helping all us newbies. I hope one day in the future I will be able to do the same.
