Author Gretchen Becker was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 1996. Since then she has 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.
Now, as a “patient-expert,” she guides all those newly diagnosed step-by-step through their first year with diabetes. In a unique format, The First Year—Type 2 Diabetes walks you through everything a patient needs to learn and do each day of the first week after diagnosis, each subsequent week of the first month, and 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 ot terms with the diagnosis and then moving on to subjects including:
- Choosing the diet that is best
- 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, The First Year—Type 2 Diabetes is an indispensable book for patients and clinicians.
