Political deceit. Corporatism. Global religions.
G'day from downunder. :)

I'm a very newly diagnosed 78-year-old, male, Type 2 diabetic.
Have been prescribed Formet and Gliclazide, which after a couple
of weeks have brought my fasting BGLs down from 30+ (ouch!) to
around 10 mmol/l. I'm still coming to grips with all this newfound
stuff I need to know, but I'm getting a lot of help from my D2 house
sharer.

Looking forward to checking out, and participating in the forum.

Cheers.

Spicy food which is too hot. Nasty people who have no idea on your life journey but feel the need to comment and be cruel.
