[QUOTE="Josie49, post: 440663, member: 87461"] Hi, I'm Jo and was diagnosed with T2 Diabetes earlier this week, at the moment I'm in shock, in denial and feel so alone. so far I've been given 500mg metformin twice a day and simvastatin 40mg once a day results of a recent fasting blood test was 7. something (non fasting blood test was 8.4) and i don't know the choloresterol was? I've told to write down a diet sheet and make an appointment with the dietitian and the Dr has booked me a place on an all day course and going to get my eyesight checked ( retinopathy?) but at the moment I'm still eating what I was and wondering if I'm eating the right foods, Dr hasn't said anything about testing blood sugar levels before or after meals so I'm assuming I will be told all about this on this course? what else oh yes, last month my Mum was told she has stage 4 lung cancer and me and hubby are taking her to chemo sessions each week Jo x [/QUOTE]
