[QUOTE="Neo88, post: 743897, member: 119194"] Have you seen a Consultant yet? If they are unsure, ask for a C-Peptide Test and a GAD antibody test. This should help clarify the type. It is possible that you simply don't quite 'fit' into any of the known types. Yes I agree constant testing is a pain, but if you can build up a good picture of what is going on, those in the know should be able to find a treatment plan that suits you and keeps your glucose stable. If you are struggling ask if your Diabetes team offer a counselling service so you have someone to chat to who understands the disease. If it is any consolation, I was diagnosed in July 2014 and only saw the Consultant yesterday, having changed GP's to get a referral. My type is still unknown! Neo88 [/QUOTE]
