Acronym City

[rosco 2]

Good afternoon. As a pretty new T2 - and despite being a retired nurse - I find the acronyms (shortcuts for technical words) very confusing at times. Might I suggest a section on the main page which would have a list of the acronyms associated with health care and diabetes? If there is already one, my apologies.

There is a "sticky" thread on the Newly Diagnosed page @rosco 2

I used the "Search" at the top of www.diabetes.co.uk

Actually, diabetes.co.uk contains an amazing library of diabetes information.
We often just look at the forum but if you want to know anything from effect of exercise on BG to converting different BG to tattoos and diabetes to ... it's all here and, unfortunately, often missed.
The Search works pretty well to if you remember to go to the Home page. Otherwise, the results focus on threads in the forum.
