[QUOTE="Rose22, post: 2174187, member: 509613"] That’s very helpful thankyou! I have just emailed the diabetes endocrinology department asking for them to send me copies of test results. Hopefully they do so I can see some numbers...not that they will mean much to me hehe. I asked for these tests to be done nearly 2 years ago when I felt I wasn’t a type 2, but my gp wouldn’t (one snapped at me that im not a type 1 so why would I have the tests and that I need to try a med to see how it works) and I asked the diabetes nurse but she said that only secondary care, ie consultant etc can do them due to funding. I sort of got the impression that it’s a wait and see case with me. But I was still surprised to be told positive antibodies. Yet in other ways not as I’d always doubted the type 2 just because I’d had gestational before rather than taking into account all the other factors. My grandmother was diagnosed type 1 in her 30s. So there is a family history. My grandmother and dad both have type 2. I’ll try and see the results and maybe I’m in the honeymoon period? Thanks for the information, it is great to not feel so lost!
