[QUOTE="Prem51, post: 1333663, member: 209498"] Hi [USER=358223]@adamstclare[/USER] and welcome to the forum! It is a huge shock when you get that diagnosis and takes a while to get your head around it all. Your experience on diagnosis is much the same as many others. I was just told to cut out sugar and to use moisturiser on my feet and wear shoes indoors to avoid stubbing my toes, I was referred to a DESMOND course for newly diagnose diabetic. I did get a place within a week due to someone cancelling, but many have to wait weeks or months. You will learn more on here on how to control your condition. Have a read round the threads and ask any questions you want to, the people on here are friendly and supportive. Do you know what your HbA1c (blood sugar) level was on diagnosis? If not you should find out from your GP surgery so you know where you are starting from. [/QUOTE]
