  1. The First Year: Type 2 Diabetes: An Essential Guide for the Newly Diagnosed - Diabetes Books

    Synopsis
    After Gretchen Becker was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 1996, she educated herself on every aspect of this chronic condition - by reading medical and scientific books and journals, talking with doctors, listening to her own body and using the internet to communicate daily with other people who have diabetes. In 2001, she marshaled everything she had learned as a "patient-expert" into the first edition of this book, which she has now completely updated and revised. The First Year - Type 2 Diabetes uniquely guides you step-by-step through your first year with diabetes, walking you through everything you need to learn and do each subsequent month of the crucial first year.

    In clear, concise, accessible language, Becker covers a wide range of practical, medical, and lifestyle issues, beginning with coming to terms with diagnosis and then moving on to subjects including:
    • Choosing the diet that is best for you
    • The role of exercise
    • Daily blood-glucose testing routines and understanding lab tests
    • Medications and supplements
    • Networking with others
    • Insurance issues
    • Traveling and socializing
    By providing reliable, useful, empathetic, and up-to-date information you need to know when you most need to know it, The First Year - Type 2 Diabetes is the one indispensable book for everyone adjusting to life with diabetes.
