Advice

So I just got my diagnosis. My dad has type 2. And so about a month ago I started having symptoms (frequent thirst, urination, foot tingling, weight gain and some other stuff) so I made an appointment for this morning and I went in fasting for blood work. My blood sugar cane back at 237 and my A1C was 9.7.

My doctor called and confirmed that the blood tests showed diabetes. Uncertain on which type yet. But I have another appointment on Wednesday to discuss my options.

So I was just wondering if you guys have any advice or anything I should make sure to discuss with my doctor.

TIA!!
