"I too was just diagnosed. Apparently I've been walking around with it for a while. What brought me to the Urgent Care and ultimately to the ER was my unquenchable thirst. Turned out that my glucose was at 680. Less than a week later, I'm down to 280. Having a heck of a time setting an appointment with a specialist. Been eating eggs, chicken, sugarless soda, sugarless candy, protein drinks since and it still won't go under 280. Started an exercise plan with the 30 day challenge but nothing with cardio yet. Also having a heck of a time getting my fingers to produce enough blood to check. Good luck with everthing"

Melroy, welcome to HealingWell. I copied your post and made your own thread so you can get more responses. We have some resources that will help you with getting your blood sugar much lower because as I think you realize such high readings can be very harmful.

Please read the two stickies are the top of the Diabetes Forum and also this website which has a lot of information about blood sugar itself: www.phlaunt.com/diabetes/

I'm glad you found us here.
yeah
