If you can get your weight down to a 'normal' good BMI it may be easier to get the right diagnosis. Do this via low-carbing. If your high blood sugar remains then Late onset T1 becomes more likely. Many GPs aren't aware of Late onset T1 and I went that way at age 60 and my diabetic GPs didn't have a clue. I had the tests done privately. If the usual T2 drugs such as Metformin, Gliclazide and possibly Sitagliptin (there are others) don't work at all or after a while then that is another clue to T1. Push for the tests.</p></blockquote><p></p>
