Hello, and Welcome, Fellow Diabetic,
if you've just discovered you might be a diabetic, the first thing you need to do is to find out what diabetes is exactly, how you control it and the health risks you may have because of it.
People are becoming more aware of diabetes ? and you may have come across it before now, especially as it is reckoned to be increasing at an alarming rate. The majority of cases diagnosed are type 2 and, if you've just been diagnosed, there's a high probability that is the type you have. If a child is diagnosed with the condition it is more often than not type 1.
The most worrying aspect of diabetes ? especially if it isn't properly controlled ? is the other health problems it can lead to including heart and kidney problems, which can be life-threatening. These risks can be minimized with good control.
An important part of the control you must have is your diet. Medical opinion about eating plans for diabetic control has changed a great deal since the early 1980s (when I was diagnosed). Because creating a healthy eating plan is the norm for most families these days, it is not as difficult to control blood sugar levels as it used to be.
When you are newly diagnosed it can be very scary. Knowing what other people have experienced and what they discovered can be a comfort and inspiration. You can find these on the Diabetes Stories page.

The Small Print...
Well, it's not really the small-print - I'm not going to make you squint to read it!
But there is one thing you do need to know... this collection of diabetic tips is purely information I've gathered for easy access.

You see, it's not practical for me to test every bit of 'know-how' or advice I find, although I've researched as much as I can. At the end of the day I cannot endorse anything or take any responsibility for the results you may or may not get by using the information you find on or linked to this site.
Having said that - I do sincerely hope you find this web site interesting, informative and enlightening and that it does help you - even if only in a small way - to understand and live with your diabetes.
