This study indicates that t2 in youth is more aggressive and Beta cell deterioration is 3 times faster and the risk of developing complications are much higher than t1s who develop their condition at the same age. This really concerns me as i am a young onset t2. I have already addressed my worries about this in my very intial post here. A month and half after my diagnosis, my control has been excellent and meds have been reduced to just metformin 500mg twice a day and expecting an a1c around 5ish(old one) if it is according to my meter readings. Regardless of my good control atm i feel hopeless that complications would be inevitable.
