Hi LjDub Sounds like you had a busy appointment, loads of information to take in (as expected). I think you are right about the information available on here, it's been a fantastic resource hasn't it? I share your concerns around medication, I'm hoping that I can start off by trying diet...

That sounds good, I think it will be useful for us all to share :) hope it all goes well for you on the 28th, keep us updated. Good luck and thanks for your reply :)

Hi Geordie I'm new to T2, thanks for sharing your positivity, I have found it really encouraging to hear this as I step out at the beginning of my journey. This forum has been brilliant in the few days I've been on it and stories like yours are useful for giving me the impetus to stay positive...

Hi, I've just got the Tee2+ (new to Type2). I haven't ordered the control solution yet! Do I need to have the control solution, is it essential for calibrating the monitor or can I just crack on without? Thanks in advance once again. :)

Me too, I'm looking forward to getting stuck into it now. Thanks for the tip

Thank you, I'll get on that one today, is the kindle edition as good as the hard copy? Cheers

You are quite right, we joke but, many a true word said in jest! I definitely over do it, and definitely need to reel it in! Love Genesis by the way, my wife and I watched a few of their concerts a couple of weeks ago on YouTube (our way of having a covid night out ).
