[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 607332, member: 12578"] There are definitely different policies as to the way varying countries treat LADA. There is a European research project which included in their investigations how long it took from diagnosis to starting insulin. . Those countries that do automatic testing of people who are not 'typical' T2 for GADA tend to put people with LADA onto insulin earlier [B]Odense, [I]n[/I] = 32;the median time was 4.8 months (interquartile range 0–12.8),[/B] Barcelona, [I]n[/I] = 67;the median time was 9.4 months (1.1–17.8), Vienna, [I]n[/I] = 35 the median time was 31 months (3.5–59 and Lyon, [I]n[/I] = 68 the median time was 29.4 months (17.6–41 But in [I] Belfast n[/I] = 66; the median time was 38.1 months (20.5–55.6) London, [I]n[/I] = 50) the median time was 47 months (29.5–64.8) months ([I]P[/I] < 0.0001).
