I'm here in an attempt to better understand my boyfriend's diabetes. He was diagnosed T2 on April 18, 2011. Since then he was tasked with learning about taking of himself while I fought with his insurance for prescription coverage (they denied test strips and glipizide). We just got his newly approved meter and strips yesterday and now I can shift focus to him.
My concern is his diet, of course. His lack of exercise has been addressed. I hope I can learn enough to help him without causing him misery... I have joked about him going vegan (my son and I are both vegan) but I know he wouldn't be happy with a sans meat meal. I'm looking forward to learning from the experiences of others and maybe I will post in the forum someday, when I feel a little more intellegent.
