[QUOTE="Lesleywo, post: 1448545, member: 112692"] Hi Glink... you really need to test for GAD as the treatment for type 2 can be detrimental to LADA patients as the drugs used can deplete beta cells more quickly. Is there a way you could get tested privately? Btw ..i too am in denial at the moment. Id been GAD positive for 4 years, insulin resistant for 3 with normal glucose levels. Have reduced carbs over the last three years. Yet now the LADA diagnosis has arrived with my Hba1c trending upwards, I've been hopeless with my diet, worse than before! I am sick at present with a horrible flu bug and living in fear of going into Addisonian crisis and keep thinking how awful it would be having to worry about blood sugars and insulin aswell as feeling like utter sh*t. And when i am sick i only feel like eating certain things, generally canned tomato soup and fruit which dont fit with a low carb diet. So i have made a pact with myself that when i finally get rid of this bug i am going to start looking after myself properly and treat this disease with the seriousness it requires. [/QUOTE]
