[QUOTE="Grateful, post: 1607809, member: 438800"] It is normal to be scared at this time. Actually, it is a healthy response because this is a serious chronic disease. Try to hold onto that feeling, or at least to remember its power in the future, because it is a powerful motivator in dealing with the disease. Now the good news. Most of us who have Type 2 diabetes are able to bring it under control in a way that not only does not prevent us from doing most of the things we want to do, but also drastically reduces the risk of "diabetes complications." When I was diagnosed nine months ago I thought my life had come to an end. Looking back at it now, it was just the start of a learning process. Within two months I had the disease under control -- by which I mean, blood glucose stable, and at non-diabetic levels. It is quite likely that you will be able to achieve the same thing, not necessarily in a short time frame but eventually. [/QUOTE]
