A blog written by a T-2 diabetic as an avenue to vent my frustrations with this disease. I use it to also communicate, and learn from other diabetics and maybe help some along the way!

Happy new year!
Well, I was diagnosed with diabetes on Oct 20 2008. Just 10 days before the great candy pigout fest.
My first reading was 442, and I was told to dial 911, but I felt fine. I am getting my diabetes under control little by little.
I got the results of my first A1C, and my GL index was way up to 13! No more C&H pure white granulated for me thank you. I also saw an opthamoligist and passed the retnopathy test thank God. Now I have to make an appointment for a podiatrist.
I am naming this blog "15 Grams". That's the equivalant for 1 carb exchange. I am watching my carb intake.
