[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2074810, member: 401801"] I was so ill/weak when diagnosed, life felt pretty much over as it was. My knees kept giving out, my husband cut my food because I couldn't put enough pressure on knives. I was just existing. Once I knew what the problem was though... I can honestly say I got my life back. Just by changing how I eat. Low carb can make one heck of a difference in quality of life. So please, realise there is hope for you yet. You've not got one foot in the grave, though it may feel that way right now. Stick around here, read, learn... You'll be okay. Diabetes is managable. Type 2 through diet and/or medication, Type 1 with insulin, and all other types in between too. The folks here on the forum are living proof. Hang in there. Maybe read the blogpost I've linked in my signature below, this forum's website, dietdoctor.com and Dr Jason Fung's The Diabetes Code. There's help and answers out there. You're not alone, and it's not hopeless. Hugs, Jo [/QUOTE]
