[QUOTE="Amy2993, post: 2339217, member: 527869"] Hello, I was diagnosed in June after DKA as a type 1. I was on insulin for 3 months before my levels were fine and I was using none eventually. I was tested for antibodies which came back negative. The doctors assured me I was type 1 and this was just a good honeymoon period, though I struggled to believe it, explained it was denial which I understand happens. Now I’m fully aware I may be a rare case. But I just want to let others know in case they ever have the same issue. Today at my consultant appointment he has said I was misdiagnosed type 1. I do not have diabetes. He couldn’t say why I went into DKA, but he said he can quite confidently say I am not type 1. Just want to put it out there as I couldn’t find anyone who had been through a similar situation online. I realise this is a very rare case and I’m not bragging here as I realise how difficult it must be for all you. But just in case anyone looks this up in the future, it’s possible to be misdiagnosed type 1. Thank you Xxx [/QUOTE]
