What Else Can a Type 2 Diabetic Do to Cope with Diabetes?

In addition to visiting your primary care doctor and seeking other specialized resources to cope, some diabetics consider participating in clinical trials. In fact, clinical trial participation may help improve your blood sugar to help prevent future diabetic complications.
