[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2364500, member: 365308"] Sorry I should have been more precise. We were chatting about how their type 1 diagnosis had come about and it was striking to me that the majority were not the classic type 1 diagnosis upon onset of puberty (like me) but their diagnosis came after a an illness or other stress and were told that this was likely an autoimmune response to the preceding illness or stressor I assume this is epigenetic given the weak link in families. I find it interesting that after so long nobody seems to know exactly what triggers this autoimmune response that leads to the destruction of our beta cells. [/QUOTE]
