[QUOTE="GBS_82_, post: 1232796, member: 284779"] Interestingly the current PM was diagnosed type 2 first before being changed to type 1. I was diagnosed at 33. In once sense I am lucky that this was in the context of DKA (I had no idea I was diabetic until I got to the hospital and remember doctors kept shouting 'how long have you known you were diabetic' and started drip feeding insulin into me). Had it not been for that I wonder if I would have got a type 2 diagnosis. Interestingly they never did a blood test on me to double check. They said they didn't really need to as I was still fairly young and not overweight, which seems rather superficial for a diagnosis. [/QUOTE]
