Thanks Bill, I figure if there is none left over after a small portion, he
can't eat it? Sure is a learning experience.
I wish his Doc had given s more information. When I asked what he could and
could not eat, he told me to go to the Library and read up on it? I think I
am shopping for a different Doc.
The gal at the pharmacy taught me how to use the test meter? I really feel
he got cheated.

I'm hoping Julie will post her very very incredibly helpful post in
response to this, but really, a great resource (for BOTH of you) to start
with is "The First Year: Type 2 Diabetes" by Gretchen Becker.

The information in there is invaluable.

If they don't have it at your library, see if they can get it through
interlibrary loan, or go out and buy a copy. I imagine you'll want to have
it around.
