Little did I realize that I would be taking Diabetes 101 this semester. It is a difficult course that also has a lab.

The class itself is pretty straightforward:

• diabetes, lipid, and hypertension management
• signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia and treatment
• medication
• nutritional management
• Monitoring blood glucose
• Identify specific diabetes self-management goals
• Developing a team

The lab will be the most challenging part:

• Demonstrate appropriate nutritional management
• incorporate behavior changes to achieve self-management goals.
