[QUOTE="SimonCrox, post: 1426698, member: 388174"] Most folk in UK have type 2 diabetes, about 5% or less have type 1 diabetes; but there is also what one might call secondary diabetes, diabetes secondary to other things; the two commonest other things would be pancreatic damage, generally from pancreatitis, or drugs, such as steroids. Probably best not to go too deeply into the classification of diabetes - one could look at the ADA or NDDG or WHO or IDF publications; but if one considers the above three, and gestational diabetes, one just about includes all diabetic folk. But we are getting better at considering the factors upsetting glucose handling such as insulin resistance, and lack of insulin production as well as considering the cause. So the answer to your question is that most diabetic folk have type 2 diabetes and gall bladder disease is very common so the two will co-exist by chance. But if you have pancreatic damage, that can also cause diabetes, secondary diabetes. Best wishes [/QUOTE]
