[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 1640790, member: 21149"] Sounds like the GP has done the right thing as you have high blood sugar and obvious symptoms which could point to T1 rather than T2. Note that a negative GAD doesn't prove that you aren't T1so bear that in mind. Another test, the c-peptide, can help show how much insulin you are or aren't producing regardless of the cause. The Community Team should be able to do the right things. I wish my GP had referred me but he hadn't a clue. Do keep the carbs down to help reduce blood sugar whilst being diagnosed. [/QUOTE]
