Hello folks,
I was recently diagnosed as a Type 1 Diabetic. It really sucked for the first few days, but with the help of my friends, family and from reading all the stuff here and on some other forums I'm feeling loads better now. So, thanks to everyone who is a part of this community. You guys are doing an amazing job!!
The thing is even though my doctor diagnosed me as a T1D, my C-peptide level is really confusing me, it's 1.29ng/ml. While I was researching about T1 after my diagnosis, I learnt that the normal level for C-peptide is b/w 0.5 - 2.0 ng/dL. So, yes I would love to hear your thoughts about it.
Also my doctor put me on NovoMix 30, (20U morning, 10U night) and it works really well (never faced a hyper, but a hypo once). Here are some more numbers that might help -
Thank you!!
