Hi
@Chrisymac88 I would be really interested to hear what you are being advised going forward - I was diagnosed before Christmas as T1, then T2 within days, then my C-peptide came back at super T2 levels, but then GAD etc, taken at the same time, all came back positive
Rather then being an oversight, blatantly ignored, with me being placed on the 12month+ waiting list to see a consultant, despite me raising my concerns. Fortunately I have a private appointment at the end of March to try and get a definitive diagnosis, (maybe LADA?), after my second/3 month HbA1c.
I was on minimal insulin (<10 units per day) for 3 weeks as I had an HbA1c of 129.5 at diagnosis, but I came off that and have just been on 2g Metformin since, with BG averages about 5.3 for the last couple of months on a reduced carb and increased light exercise routine.
So you are not alone in the dark wilderness of diagnosis!
@urbanracer Is there an option to be an anti-body positive non-diabetic, who has a dalliance into T2/insulin resistance, then go into remission?? Can I have a big handful of those straws to clutch please??
