[QUOTE="DaftThoughts, post: 1576932, member: 317436"] Yeah, opinions are strongly divided. I am indeed LADA. Right now I'm on Toujeo (basal) and Novorapid (bolus, for with meals). My own insulin production has gone down dramatically, I can't go without injections anymore. I'm hesitant to say we should be treated as T1 or T2 because we shouldn't be treated as either. We're LADA, which means that the course of our diabetes is very different from other types (even if we do eventually become insulin dependent). We need to go with a combination of treatments based on our current situation, AKA based on your C-peptide results and whether or not you're showing insulin resistance. I think diabetes management is always personal. [USER=240838]@Kristin251[/USER] is also LADA but her approach to managing her diabetes is almost the complete opposite of mine. We're all unique, there's no one treatment or diet that fits all. The only thing we can do is listen to how others are doing, and take elements of their treatment and work them into your own wherever it fits. Go with your gut instinct, if something isn't working out, discuss it and try other things. Being too rigid about 'how LADA should be treated' can actually prevent you from figuring out what works for you! [/QUOTE]
