I was diagnosed at 18 with T2. I went in with a urinary tract infection and they did my urine glucose at the same time and found it was incredibly high.
To Muddie & all the others whose children have been diagnosed recently, and you are still learning what it is all about,Muddie said:My little boy is 2 yrs old and was diagnosed 2 weeks ago with type 1 x
And how many of you have actually got either of these two books .. I would be interested to know, so please confirm if you possess 2. Type 1 Diabetes in Children, Adolescents and Young Adults (Ragnar Hanas).JontyW said:To Muddie & all the others whose children have been diagnosed recently, and you are still learning what it is all about,Muddie said:My little boy is 2 yrs old and was diagnosed 2 weeks ago with type 1 x
I strongly advise that you buy these two books as a starter ..
1. Carbs & Cals: A Visual Guide to Carbohydrate & Calorie Counting for People with Diabetes (Chris Cheyette)
Buy this excellent book that provides clear pictures of nearly every food you might need.

2. Type 1 Diabetes in Children, Adolescents and Young Adults (Ragnar Hanas)
Don't get put off by the title since the principles apply to all Type 1 diabetics.. a really excellent book with great detail in all aspects of managing diabetes. If you only buy one book …. this is the one.
