[QUOTE="Japes, post: 2052763, member: 277410"] Hello from a slightly faster mover from T2 to LADA! 2.5 years for me, but a very similar story, in many ways. I was just utterly relieved to get onto the correct treatment and delighted I'd been proved correct in my suspicions it was really not T2, though I did understand why initially that was the diagnosis, so wasn't bothered at all by the reclassification. In fact, I think I delighted in telling all those who'd been happily commending me for my sterling work in losing weight that I was right there as well. I lost the weight because my body was attacking itself, not because I was particularly trying to.do so. Whilst I'm still relatively low carb because I feel loads healthier on it, carbs are no longer the enemy they were in the battle when the chief weapons were diet/exercise/oral meds. All of which worked until they didn't. I've also been lucky that I've found adjusting to being on insulin remarkably easy apart from a bit of weight going back on again, which is slowly being tackled. Oh, and learning to accept the fact no two days are the same! [/QUOTE]
