[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 689296, member: 41816"] Hi Gary, and welcome to the forum! Yes, it is a shock to discover what could happen if we don't take care of ourselves. But the key thing to hang on to is that IF we do take care of ourselves, then most of us can live full, healthy and long lives, without developing the complications which seem so scary. You are probably in shock, so I won't bombard you with information at this point. You can always come back and ask any questions you like. The key points to remember are that - Well controlled diabetics are usually symptom free - Diet is key. But there is no need to worry about everything you put in your mouth. There is MASSES of diet advice on the forum, and you have plenty of time to work out what works best for you. - And this forum is a wonderful source of information, support and advice. Ask any questions you like. [/QUOTE]
