Hello!

Greetings @Whirlindervish
Did your doc tell you what your HbA1c was or your fasting glucose ?
How much wiggle room have you when it comes to lifestyle changes & weight loss ?

Many of the newly diagnosed here have had amazing results following low carb & light exercise immediately post diagnosis.
There appears to be an early window of opportunity to turn things around if you're pro-active.

Hi All, just recently been diagnosed as type 2. Feel OK with the news but good to see an active community where I can share my experiences and ask for help! Just about to start Metformin this week if GP sorts the prescription.... Thanks
