[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2129182, member: 372207"] That one can be inconclusive as well. High = T2, very low = T1 (or 3C), normal, low normal and below normal can be anything. In adults the insulin producing cells tend to take their time dying with T1. And T2 can go unnoticed for a long time, which can compromise insulin production as well. In my case GAD neg (no other antibodies tested), C-pept. just below the low normal threshold, Gliclazide and lower (but not very low) carb did help a little but not enough to go below 10, ever, only basal insulin left me with high spikes after food. A basal/bolus insulin regime works very well. My internist says something along the lines of she won't bet her life on it, but if it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck etc. it's probably a duck.
