[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2601292, member: 372717"] 22 is quite ypung for T2 so I wouldn't rule out T1 even if T2 is in the family. But in any case I want to stress that diabetes is [B]not your fault[/B], whether it's faulty genetics (T2) or who knows what (T1). And just to confuse matters there are other types of diabetes out there (eg MODY, which is genetic). (Speaking as the T1 daughter of a T1 mother and T2 father, with a husband with two T2 parents, so my kids are genetically doomed. :) ) And welcome to the forums. Hopefully we can give you some help and/or moral support whichever type of diabetes you turn out to have. [/QUOTE]
