[QUOTE="JMoli, post: 2339006, member: 518411"] Hi there, I was in a similar situation of not knowing which type I was early this year and it took at least a month to find out which type I was - very frustrating. I would say though that if you start a low carb diet now and turn out to be T1 then this will be difficult for the diabetic team to assess your insulin needs. I went down the low carb route, got great blood sugar (whilst taking gliclazide) but when told was T1 they needed to see my numbers on a normal-carb diet and I had to spend two weeks eating carbs again. Having said all that, if Type 2 then low carb eating definitely seems the way forward. I hope you find out soon, keep phoning and asking what’s happening [/QUOTE]
