Type 2
Been type 2 from 2011 at 35 years old. Up until recently I believed my diabetes was under control. Noticed a wild thirst the other week, went to gp and my glucose levels were high (at one point 26), ketones high last week so sent to a & e only to be sent home, the doctor said she was "baffled as to why I was sent in the first place". Cholesterol is 6.6?? Hba1c is down from 76 to 71, 89 on diagnosis. Now have a trace of protein in urine. Nothing has really changed in my diet other than from january ive been MORE watchful of my food. Am at a complete loss of whats wrong or how to fix it. HELP

I would go back to the Dr, ask if he thinks he should do the blood tests for late onset T1 or lack of insulin.
with 26 and ketones, I would go to hospital every day.
