[QUOTE="viv k, post: 1119824, member: 110575"] I really don't understand why a diagnosis of GD is automatically assumed to be type 2. All they test for is how high blood glucose goes after a carbohydrate load. They have no idea whether it is because of insulin resistance or lack of insulin production. Type 1 and type 2 are separate diseases, OK I accept that the general population might not get that but it's shocking and extremely disappointing that the medical profession seem to have trouble understanding it!
