[QUOTE="Mrs HJG, post: 2632341, member: 552087"] Technology is a blessing and a curse! I was tested for 3 antibodies, might be the norm in mainland UK, IA2, GAD and ZnT8 and all were positive, but I believe that you only need to be positive with 1 to be considered T1/LADA, but it's one of those things were you can be T1 with no-antibodies or T2 with antibodies and all combinations in between. Having been 'low carb' for 12 months, my HbA1c continued to drop, so insulin production not thought to be further declining, but so too did my anti-body counts, which my consultant put down to my diet, (rather than no more 'bodies' left to be 'anti'!). IMHO I don't think anyone really understands all the subtleties yet and any symptoms and results are acted on with what works/is relevant to the norm. I hope you get to speak with the consultant soon and at least have a bit more guidance. [/QUOTE]
