[QUOTE="AJB_81, post: 1474181, member: 395521"] Hi all, this is fascinating reading! I was diagnosed with T1D 2 months ago. GAD antibodies came back at 2000 & subsequent tests for 4 other beta cell attacking antibodies came back positive also (I had these as part of some research I've got involved in with address-2 for newly diagnosed T1Ds). I've also had c peptide tests and are currently at 1.17 so my pancreas is still functioning at the lower end of normal?!? Fingers crossed this strong honeymoon lasts but will be ready and watching for when it does diminish. Just got a Libre, amazing to see how low fat high carb foods spike my sugars but high fatty foods cause a very small rise in BG. It's almost as if a high fat diet would cause my overall HbA1c to be nice and low, although this diet wouldn't help with my addition to long distance running haha! Any info on anyone's honeymoon duration would be interesting. I find usual when I ask for this kind of info I'm met with comments about not thinking about it and just accept it... For me I accept I have T1D and just want to enjoy hypo complication free runs for as long as I can and this honeymoon thingy is magic for that! [emoji1379] [/QUOTE]
