Thank you for the replies. They are very informative.
My C-peptide result is 0.69 ng/ml while GAD antibody is 14.98 IU/ml.
I also would like to ask you about pain in joints? Did you used to have pain in joints? As I usually have pain in my knees and vertebrae.
When insulin was causing hypos were you perhaps taking too much for your meals ? I eat very small meals and only take 1/2-1 unit with them.
When I took insulin, I was advised by doctor to take 20 units of Lantus 3 times a day and break my meal into small six times a day. That usually resulted in low sugar of around 50 which caused me to wake up at midnight or stop working at early afternoon to eat sth.
Can you ask for a c- peptide test? That will show how much insulin you produce on your own. I have no idea what your GAD measurement is and how to convert it to US. But I do know it should be close to zero.
