My Riley was just diagnosed

[AlisonRiley]

Hey everyone! I'm Alison and I'm here on behalf of Riley. He was just diagnosed with diabetes last week and I'm totally overwhelmed right now, so I'm thankful I found this resource. Glad to know there's a wealth of info out there and support.

Welcome to you and Mr Riley. It is very overwhelming to start off with but it does get easier as you go along. Especially now you've found the FDMB post any questions that you have (no doubt there will be many) on the main health board and it is highly recommended to start home testing as soon as you can.

Thank you so much! He got his first dose of insulin today, and I'll definitely be around the forums.
