[QUOTE="Glink, post: 1789135, member: 254742"] Hi Midori, I lurk in this section b/c have not been diagnosed 1.5, but like you have been told that is "probably" what I am/will be eventually (currently classified as "pre" but can only maintain those #s with very low carbs and metformin, so it's a bit iffy). Whatever "type" you are I probably am too--we sound to have very similar profiles. Just chiming in to say you aren't alone--I don't have fatty liver (based on blood tests and ultrasound) and don't know if I have antibodies b/c my current health region won't cover the tests, but had lowish c-peptide, high-but-not-scary-high blood sugars, and classic diabetes symptoms. Always ate very whole food diet and exercised, an similar to you in height/weight/age. There's something about with us, but it seems only time will tell whether/how long we can keep things at bay with diet and minor medication. I try not to get too stressed out about it, but at times the anxiety of "waiting for the other shoe to drop" can be challenging (e.g., whenever I'm getting sick and sugars spike, but I don't know yet that I'm getting sick!).
