[QUOTE="Andy12345, post: 584214, member: 59108"] hi, welcome :) sorry to hear about your conditions :( yes you are diabetic and will need to make some dietary changes, please don't panic but also don't take your diagnosis lightly, it will need to be controlled, the doctors seem quite happy to let people get worse until its a big problem then try to deal with it, this is just daft, so your doing exactly the right thing looking us up and together we can steer you away from any further nasty complications, some people like myself look at DB as a blessing as it made us change our ways (your ways may not need changing though) anyway, ask any questions you may have there is always someone happy to answer, cancer it seem feeds off of sugar (or so I've been reading) so reducing your sugar may potentially reduce the risk of any further problems (don't quote me on that) try to think about sugar as a carbohydrate, because thats what it is so when you think i need to cut out sugar, what your actually saying is i need to cut out (down) on carbs, there are carbs everywhere and it takes a bit of getting used to the idea that a slice of bread is a slice of sugar but it basically is, its a great idea to have a look around the forum :) best of luck! when reading about the complications try to remember, these are in the most part avoidable, i know when i first started reading about DB thats all i saw.
