Hi rlmac27!! So happy you decided to join Connect. Sorry I did not see your post till today!! 🙁 Diabetes is so tough and ever changing. So looks like a new diagnosis for you. May I suggest the attached link for some great information as well as a close follow up with your dietition. If you have not seen one yet I highly encourage it. I am not diabetic but our patients are all seen by our dietitian. Diabetes cannot be treated just buy one or the other you really have to have collaborated approach in treating it. Hope this helps and praying you are feeling better soon. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/diabetes/in-depth/diabetes-diet/art-20044295
