[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2091522, member: 372717"] The reason for both these questions is likely to be that many many adult diagnosed T1s are initially misdiagnosed as T2. (A recent study said 38%.) If you move to insulin within a short space of becoming T2 then the misdiagnosis becomes more likely, and it's better to know whether you're T1 or T2, even if you're on insulin either way. Apart from anything else, you may get a slightly better slice of the NHS cake if you're T1 (eg eligibility for continuous glucose monitors). [/QUOTE]
