[QUOTE="Lola1972, post: 1408101, member: 385509"] Hi Everyone, I was diagnosed last Wednesday following a blood test after feeling really under the weather. My doctor didnt even mention the word diabetes so when he rang and told me I was totally shocked. I was given an appointment to see the diabetic nurse and was put on metformin as she said my glucose was extremely high. I already have fibromyalgia and arthritis and have had a spinal fusion after 3 recurring herniated discs and been left with nerve damage down my left leg. I am only 44 (45 next Saturday) and am feeling in a state of shock. I am not due to return to the diabetic nurse for 3 months so am feeling in limbo. I am hoping I will find support and advice on dealing with diabetes. I have started to change my diet to low fat, low sugar and low salt but am looking forward to checking out new recipes and cheats on snacking . Any advice on what blood testing kit I should get? Many thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
