I to was diagnosed as Diabetic after two readings over 130 in 2006. But my GP didn't do any more than start me on Diabetic meds by mouth with no mention of testing by me or anyone. I now take two oral meds along with two types of insulin, because a lot of General Doctors don't understand the best way to deal with Diabetic control at the onset. I went along time before I ever started testing.View Thread
