[QUOTE="Vhm1, post: 1637557, member: 411598"] The only other (meaning other than me) person in my family with type 1 was my grandmother diagnosed 40-41 years of age. Back then it was 'insulin dependent' when she wound up in the hospital, probably in DKA, like many diagnosed type 1. But plenty of other ailments caused by autoimmune disorders in the same (maternal) side of my family. MS. Rheumatoid (juvenile) arthritis. Lupus. Guilen Barre. Autoimmune liver disease. You name it, we have it. Dig deep. You may see autoimmune caused diseases of all varieties, even if no other type 1 diabetes. [/QUOTE]
