[QUOTE="Mep, post: 1476883, member: 211362"] This isn't complete information (second point.. a low level of c-peptide with a high blood glucose level is found in people with type 1 diabetes).... I'm type 2 and I had low c-peptide test result and I'm now on insulin therapy for life. So it applies to anyone with diabetes, not just those with type 1. The difference really is in how the insulin production was destroyed in the body. So regardless of what type of diabetes you have, you really need to have your doc keep tabs on how your pancreas is working, especially if you're noticing changes where you can't seem to get anything to lower your blood sugars (that happened to me and that's why they did the diagnostic tests again.... I'd had diabetes 12 years at that point... but I've had 3x c-peptide tests done since I was diagnosed in 1998). I hope this helps :) [/QUOTE]
