[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 1105787, member: 21149"] Hi and welcome. If you had the GAD antibody test it will show whether you have any antibodies but not your current level of insulin production. The c-peptide test does that. LADA can take many years to come on fully. It took me about 8 years. So your insulin may be going down very slowly and I believe some people with the antibodies never do lose insulin production. It sounds like you don't need any insulin yet and even before that, Gliclazide is often prescribed to stimulate the pancreas. Try to get time to talk to the GP/endo. [/QUOTE]
