Per the nurse, my doctor has "coded" my file - I have Type 2 Diabetes.
True to nature, have purchased two more books on Amazon (gotta love that Amazon Prime!). I am meeting with my personal Diabetes Nurse/Educator this Saturday at Breadco.
And I have to get my numbers down to avoid going on meds.
So....off to get my numbers down.
Just in case anyone is confused...
Hi Paula, thanks for your comment on my blog. I hope what I have to say helps you. I'm sorry about your diagnosis but it sounds like you will deal with this in a good way. You mentioned buying books and I wanted to recommend one to you: The First Year Type 2 Diabetes. An essential guide to the newly diagnosed. by Gretchen Becker. Excellent book. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI saw this on Amazon - going to check on it, too. My other obsession is books.
DeleteI wish I had something profound and comforting to say, but I don't. I know you will tackle this. Love you. Belle
ReplyDeleteThose with the checklists always prevail. I should get that printed up on something.
DeleteWell, shoot!
ReplyDeleteI know that must be a disappointment to you, to hear.
I know you will tackle it wisely and well.
Paula,
ReplyDeletePraying for you. Different matter, I have lost almost 25 pounds through Weight Watchers and they do provide a lot of help. I do not want to have a heart attack as I am becoming my husband's caregiver. Actually I call myself a lovegiver. I am the best person to take care of him and I do not want to not be able to do that.
Hugs,
Carol
