I am gathering information on how people felt/feel at diagnosis (of diabetes). You can read the whole post on my blog, or share your word here (one word that describes how you felt when you were diagnosed). I'd love to hear from you!
angry

Comment by Trudy on August 21, 2012 at 5:44am (Silence) I was hooked up to glucose IV in the hospital after an operation, when a nurse came and checked my BG (with a giant stabber). She looked at the result and said, "You have Diabetes" and left. So -- well, absolute and stunned silence.
