[QUOTE="hanadr, post: 341197, member: 8110"] I've noticed that a lot of T2 diagnoses are done on the assumption that adults are usually T2. However if you are a T1, there's ultimaately no alternative to insulin. You are unusual in being investigated so soon after an initial diagnosis of diabetes. So often the medics don't look further until faced with a crisis. Your doctor is on the ball! If you feel you'd like to read up on the subject of controlling T1 on minimal insulin, I'd recommend Dr. Bernstein's Diabetes Solution. My edition is a few years old and bought in the USA. I'm not even sure if there is a British Edition. However, it's easy to learn to convert the units. I am a T2, but got my experience of T1 from living with my husband, who was diagnosed T1 in his late 20s, some years after we were married. He has certainly benefitted from exposure to Bernstein's way of thinking. Hana [/QUOTE]
