Not end of the world, unker diagnosed for Type 2, 20 years ago. Just change of lifestyle. No over drinking of beer, liquor to plotek kidneys. Gradually cut down on sugary drinks and food, you know-la...no need to tell you which ones. Get some exercise, start light and then more as you progressed, unker started short marathons on top of weight training at gym, dancing for cardio to lose inches. Cut down rice, prob 1-2 times a day until can totally cut-off, do it for 3 months and go for urine test not blood as it's more accurate. I started with 9.0 glucose level to 3.3 now but will go back up if I stop my discipline. Less jogging now as knees not strong but still doing 1 hour cardio 5x a week and weights.

Fact is, not onli potong kaki, you will go blind suddenly from glaucoma as the nerves in your eyes will be weakened by the excess glucose and lack of insulin produced by your body. Your whole nervous system will go haywire, especially yr legs as you will feel numb there and sometimes itchy which you can't scratch it off especially under your soles. Your dick will be affected as well, so no more 3x sex a day, more like 3 months one time if you can maintain an erection. Blue pills need to be doubled but need to check BP first as heart will not be strong due to diabetic medication eg metformin. When you first start taking it, you shit watery or soft stool, plus lots of gas in your bowels. So, to lessen the impact, need to start from today, eat less, exercise more and sleep more as well.
