[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 2089900"] That is no surprise to those of us who know that more than half the people with type 1 diabetes are diagnosed over the age of 20. The ignorance of it being a childhood disease (including calling it juvenile diabetes by a well known international type 1 charity) often leads to dangerous misdiagnosis of type 2. I was diagnosed in my mid 30s and know there are people on this forum diagnosed significantly older than the guy you have just met. [/QUOTE]
