Type 1 or 2

As I said in my first post my GP reviewed my fasting blood test and thought type 2 but suspected there may be an iron disorder behind it. He referred me to another doc, more specialised, but I'm not sure he's necessarily a diabetes guy and he said today the iron issue is a red herring and its type 1. But having made no other tests. I can't work out how he's so sure. This has hit me like a brick and I just want to be sure, but it feels like I've just got opinions not a diagnosis.

Hi, my husband was diagnosed with iron disorder called haemachromatosis last year which is too much iron in your blood and told high possibility he will also at some point become diabetic, one month ago hey presto he is type 1 diabetic. Not sure if your dilemma the same but worth checking it since they are talking about an iron deficiency.
