Hi all,
I’m sorry if I’m repeating what others have said/asked, but I was newly diagnosed over the telephone by my GP on Thursday 7 May 2020. After feeling tired and having bloods tested he telephoned and said I had type 2 diabetes, then started throwing numbers at me (of which I don’t understand) saying my readings were 76 and he was starting me on a drug called metformin.
He also said that there was educational things I could go on but because of pandemic they weren’t going at the moment
My head is a mess, I have tried reading stuff on the web but I just don’t understand it all
