After a Diabetes Diagnosis

Having diabetes is like being in charge of an octopus. There isn't just one cut and dried way of coping with the disease because of all of its different parts. At first, it might seem like an overwhelming amount of information is thrown at you. There are medications, food plans, and schedules. You have to learn how to operate medical equipment such as a glucometer, or maybe an insulin pump. You may need to learn how to give yourself insulin injections.
