Hey
@iwilltouchyourcat welcome to the LADA train. Just a couple of thoughts and things to share, I was recommended at my re-classification (private) consultation to take a Vitamin D supplement, and maybe Selenium; when possible go for a low gluten/gluten-free options and keep the BG spikes as small as possible to stop stressing my pancreas - I was already doing most of this, following the wise words on this forum, although not consciously doing the gluten thing due to low carb and avoiding the usual gluten-loaded foods anyway.
I cut my Metformin in half to 2x500g/day as the consultant said there were still many benefits to taking it, though how beneficial to my BG could be negligible - I have had no real increase in average BG since reducing. He did say to question any additional drugs the 'younger' diabetes team may suggest to ensure nothing increases insulin production/overworks the pancreas; I have no knowledge how gliclazide works, but as you are not T2, might be worth checking.
I was also told that if my waking BG is (unexplainably/frequently) >6 and spikes >8 then that's probably the time to start on a small amount of insulin.
You might be doing all this already or been told something more relevant to you and your situation, but thought it worth a mention; and not saying my consultant is the best, but seems not all consultants were created equal and I think I got a good'un for diagnosis
I am also now following many of Jessie Inchauspé's hacks; I think she is great, (but I am not up to getting in an argument with anyone on here about her messages/methods etc
). She re-booted my diabetes 'interest' having become bored with the whole thing at only 5 months in.
I'm interested to see how your non-fasting C-peptide differs from the first one though. Take it easy.
