    Hi all , Well this morning my GP said I'm "labeled as type 2" but not to panic yet! Well I am upset about it, feeling really down to be honest but my main concern at the moment is getting some answers. I did ask my GP if the constant discomfort I have in my upper left abdomen and intermittent...
