Hi everyone! I was diagnosed with LADA in November in last year. I know a couple of T2 diabetics and a couple of T1 diabteics (including my dad) but I've never met or had the chance to talk to any fellow LADAs / 1.5s! I guess I'm just interested to know what everyone's stories are, how and...

Hey there, I'm 19 and have been unknowingly experiencing hypoglycemia for quite a while now. Things changed last year around February time. Very suddenly, after an hours drive I didn't have the energy to even get out of the car and my then partner (Type 1 Diabetic) took the liberty of testing...
