Hey guys.
Help would be appreciated. I was diagnosed itch T1 DMin Aug 2011. At the age of 23.
My dads type two. I was expecting to be type two ( I am overweight and not particularly) however I was admitted to hospital with DKA Bm was 46 and I started on insulin.
The question still remains in the back of my mind I was never tested for GAD antibodies but I was deemed type 1 because I'd the ketosis however rarely type 2 diabetics can also have ketosis. Unusual but can happen for which theyll require a insulin for a while and then no more.
Reason I'm skeptical is no official tests and I am on small amounts of insulin (in terms of my body's weight) 10 unit of novo rapid with evening meal and 9 units of lantus. Don't know whether I should speak to my endocrinologist.
My hba1c at diagnosis was13
My HbA1C now is 6.3 yeah I changed diet but I'm still oversight. Need to excercise more and that good a control with such low doses confuses me even more.
Help.
