[QUOTE="Katrina5664, post: 1492778, member: 353017"] Ok so now I am very confused. Last year in August I was hospitalised with insects bites on my back which were operated on and at the same time was diagnosed with T1 diabetes - blood sugar level of high 30s and a measurement of 113 ketones. This was a shock but ok as all of you out there have done you have to get on with it and learn. I have worked quite hard to get control and I am not doing so bad. Today I went for my second diabetic review and this time saw the main man for diabetes at the hospital. All went well he was pleased with my readings and blood works blah di blah. He then said he was not sure if I was type 1, or 2 or (giggle giggle - him not me) but was quite happy to treat me as type 1. For explanation he said I had no Gad antibodies present. So now I am really confused. Should I ask to see someone else, should I ask for more tests what difference would it make. I am on insulin at the moment basel and bolus, Katrina [/QUOTE]
