[QUOTE="DiabeticGeek, post: 21549, member: 7961"] BTW - the ketone test that several people have talked about doesn't in itself tell you what sort of diabetes you have. Rather, it will give you advance warning of the dreaded DKA (Diabetic Ketoacidosis). This is a dangerous (in fact potentially fatal) complication of diabetes - that is usually seen in untreated T1 diabetics. This is why we have all been telling you to get to a hospital fast if you start getting suddenly worse (the nausea and stomach pains, on top of the thirst and tiredness of diabetes, are a classic symptom of DKA).
