[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 1811255"] If you are suggesting someone else apart from a GP does the type 1 diagnosis, this is not my experience: I was diagnosed by my GP. As I said earlier in this thread, when diagnosed as an adult, the onset is usually slower and less likely to result in emergency hospital admission. As for fewer people having type 1: one tenth of the people with diabetes, have type 1. If the other 90% have type 2, this suggests the average GP will only diagnose 36 people with type 2 in their life. [I have taken the upper limit of 2 adult type 1 diagnosis, assumed this is half the total diagnosis (rounded down 57%) and then multiplied by 9.] Sorry, I am not trying to be provocative or argumentative; I am trying to share my experience and research ... and I am sure you are doing the same - it's interesting to read the different takes.
