Hi folks,
Like the title says, I'm newly diagnosed after being admitted into hospital with suspected DKA on Monday.
I had no idea I was diabetic, and had CRAZY high blood sugar (43!) and HbA1c (105!)...
Still don't know for sure if I'm type 1 or type 2, but I'm getting treated as type 1 for the time being. So, I'm taking insulin and monitoring my bg at home. Still very high levels, but they're coming down slowly.
Still getting used to everything, so any advice for these early days would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Mr J
