Hello, I am new on this site and relatively new on the issue of diabetes.
I was diagnosed with 280 on an empty stomach, the detail is that my doctor only gave me the treatment, but I did not gain anyone else, right now I know that I should go with an endocrinologist or internist, however right now for my economic possibilities I do not see it possible.I really feel alone, and my husband does not seem to understand what happens to me.Greetings from Monterrey, Mexico.

Welcome!
First of all, did they give you medical material, they told you where to get it and what do you have to use?Like a glucometer, insulin/pills, etc?What kind of diabetes do you have?
