It takes a little while to learn the best way to manage your diabetes. I was 23 when i was diagnosed and i had a really good educator helping. telling me what i should and shouldn't be eating. there is no real answer for your question. learn as much as you can and exercise regularly and eat good food that all i can say. all the best.

Treating diabetes is best carried out during the early stages of the disease when the consequences can still be controlled and minimized. Such an approach will require an early determination of diabetic symptoms. These diabetic symptoms are:
* Extreme and excessive thirst that is quite abnormal
* Hunger even when meals have recently been taken
* Frequent urination
* Fatigue easily creeps in
* Excessive weight loss at such a short period of time
* Smeared vision
* Nagging impatience that has recently been developed

With the newer types of insulin these days, diabetic diets aren't necessarily as restrictive as they used to be. Read here https://tr.im/vhPA3
As with any medicine or diet change, you should discuss it with your doctor. Fruits, both fresh and dried, have a natural sugar in them that will raise blood sugar levels, so be careful about eating too much. Not sure about the nuts. Moderation is always the key. I've been diabetic for 18 years and just recently changed insulin types. I love it because it gives me more freedom in when and what I eat.

Insulin will lower your blood sugar levels in 30 minutes or less. However, by the time insulin injections are necessary, your body has already lost an ability to self-control blood glucose levels. So, you measure your blood sugar, you calculate the insulin required, and you inject the insulin. It is NOT a cure.

Did your doctor set you up with a nurse or specialist about diabetes education.
If you don't have on in your town. Most inner/larger towns have more medical services.

depends on how high your blood sugar is at diagnosis, and on the type of insulin you are using.
