[QUOTE="mo1905, post: 544849, member: 55195"] Exactly the reason why being labelled T1 is probably better. Ask any member of the public what LADA or T1.5 diabetes is and you will get a very blank stare. Even some doctors have never heard of these terms. I understand your frustration regarding correct diagnosis but to be brutally honest, who is interested in raising awareness for LADA's or T1.5's ? I am in a very similar situation as yourself and all I care about is my treatment really. I'm not suggesting you're wrong in wanting a 100% diagnosis, that's your right and it should happen. All I'm saying is, what good would it do once you know ? [/QUOTE]
