[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2412029, member: 372207"] I agree it doesn't look much like T1 in your case, [USER=207206]@Duncan_Scott[/USER] . The next bit isn't very relevant to you, I think, but I still wanted to add some more information in reply to Type Zero's post to prevent confusion in others who may read this thread. Hope you'll find a treatment plan which works well for you, regardless of type! T1's, which includes LADA's, sometimes do go for years without needing insulin after a diagnosis based on high BG's and positive antibodies. It can take a long time before you're not producing enough insulin yourself, especially when eating low carb. Not needing insulin within a year does not rule out T1. The same goes for hba1c: it's not a diagnostic tool to determine type. If caught early, or if someone happened to already eat low carb, you can be diagnosed with T1 even with prediabetic numbers. Not having a very high hba1c does not rule out T1. [/QUOTE]
