I've been a nurse for 20 years and thought I knew enough about diabetes. Then I was recently diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and found myself asking alot of the same questions that I've heard other patients ask. This book was a big help to me and will be a big help for my family in understanding how to live with and control this condition.

This is a great book filled with some wonderful information on how to manage and live with Type 2 Diabetes from a woman's perspective. As a post-menopausal woman with Type 2 Diabetes, it has helped me to better understand how my blood glucose control works and offers many helpful suggestions on how to maintain good glucose control and keep my condition from worsening.

if you have a kindle think twice befoe buying this book. most of the information is not even related to diabetes....however if you are looking for a book about pms or menopause or sex after menopause or the various blood pressure meds or...this was some fun stuff...why our nation is so obese and all the different types of fats and additives that have been around since the 1920s...this book is definately for you. it does not even have a table of contents so you can skip the off topic fluff. this cost me 10.00 dollars and i am going back to the kindle store and will buy the diabetes first year book. this is my first kindle review and i have had my kindle for almost a year and have bought well over 100 books on it.

I found this book to be chock full of interesting and invaluable information. It explains so much about the ways this disease affects you and how important your eating habits are. It also explains in detail how the different types of medications work. I would recommend this book to any woman who has Type 2 diabetes.
