[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2324037, member: 451727"] I was told that you've either got antibodies or not (but this was GAD antibodies in my case) and that generally it makes no difference whether it's a higher or lower number, they also said antibodies can disappear altogether. I was told that the presence of them versus no longer having them made no difference to anything. Also, having a honeymoon does not mean you plod along with NO insulin necessarily, it could be that you simply need lower amounts because you may still be producing some of your own. Your 14 units of basal sounds like you still could be in a 'honeymoon' period to me. Also, I'm not sure many of us would ever find out whether we still had antibodies after the first test, it was hard enough getting the test in the first place! x [/QUOTE]
