What's in a name, 47 and now treated like a type 1, was treated as a type 2 for three years. You will have the lchf supporters shouting to lose carb, I am still researching this buy have had to do so just to stay well, if you decide to go that route I recommend doing out gradually as it does...

High ****, I used to live on Dumfries. Loved it there apart from the weather. I am seriously looking at taking up kayaking as I have palmo pustular psoriasis. I have friend in Castle Douglas that is an amputee after a motor bike accident. Quite a small world, I guess.

Well I can definitely blame my parents, it at least one of them.

I have gone unconscious one, did not really know much about it. Once you fine around out it's just like a hypo that you normally have. I have helped on numerous occasions people that have passed out. Most have a fit similar to epilepsy, then groan a lot and within a few minutes before groggy but...

I have the same thing, it also affects my feet. Turns out to be psoriasis (PPP) only found this out through specialist

Thanks for highlighting, I had DKA, two days after you alerted me. I am now off the drug for more reasons than the DKA but already feeling a lot better.

Definitely mody. It is the one that is similar to type 1, hence the need for insulin.

Not at the time, saw him later. I was on insulin, dextrose, plus another drip to counteract the severe abdominal pain. I must say they were brilliant. I did not even know that they were testing me for mody until ib got the results today. I audio have some liver abnormalities, not sure what yet...

Thanks for your help, I ended up in a and e, on the weekend. Finally being listened to make me feel a lot better.

HNF1 MODY-no longer confused. Treatment he's changed to insulin. Diabetic blisters turn out to be psoriasis, and IBD is actually autonomic neuropathy.

Dextrose tablets

No I missed that one. How the hell important information like this is not getting through to GP's, I have stopped taking them.

Just tested myself for ketones, level is 2-4mmol. Rang GP for advice, told I am at no risk for DKA. Only confirmed type 1 on insulin is apparently at risk? Any input appreciated

Thanks, defo need to think outside the box

Sounds similar, hire are they treating you.

Possibly. It is so complicated. I have had so much testing done to for the gastric issues which are still unresolved, but not so much for my diabetes. Having got fed up, I have now concluded that I must be type 2.2

I am going to as soon as I see Endo. Problem is that I asked to go on insulin and was refused and put on cana.

Just had to look that one up. I don't think I am fructose intolerant. Good thought though.

No, it's almost fun trying to get that low . I did used to get hypo's. But not for a long time.

I have wondered, problem is that nobody seems to join the dots up. That fact that have diabetic blisters, which are rare in type 1, let alone 2. When I was first diagnosed, they put me on met, I ended up in hospital through shortness off breath, but was taken off and put on glic. Seemed to...
