[QUOTE="Alison Campbell, post: 1705069, member: 91555"] Like you I have type 1 and type 1.5 in my immediate family. I was reading the other day that being GAD positive and a close relative of type 1 does not mean you will get type 1. This was on the website of of hospital test information for doctors. Found it here:[URL]http://www.southend.nhs.uk/pathology-handbook/test-directory/test-directory-g-index/gad-antibodies/[/URL] Am I reading this right? I would still try to get a GAD anti body test if I could. I would want to know especially down the line if low carb stops working. Not too expensive really, I'd pay £20 for peace of mind [URL]http://www.ouh.nhs.uk/immunology/diagnostic-tests/tests-catalogue/gad-antibodies.aspx[/URL] [/QUOTE]
