[QUOTE="mrspuddleduck, post: 883475"] I'm described as LADA but technically I'm type 1. Sadly in my case, it's more politics and convenience than medical need. Consultant uses it because the local NHS computer can't cope with an oddity like me :banghead:. On the antiquated system they have you can only be a type 1 if onset was before 25 years of age, if older it automatically resets 'you' to type 2! But it can cope with LADA!!! I only found out when I had a hypo whilst at hospital one day and they didn't believe me cos the records said I was type 2, they just thought I must be drunk...:( (thankfully my friend was with me and sorted me out in front of the nurses). The joys of being diabetic! :D:D. Sue xxxx [/QUOTE]
