[QUOTE="Ian DP, post: 545910, member: 91575"] I read somewhere that there is a possibility that 10% of all T2 are In fact LADA, this would mean that there are more LADA than T1. My understanding of a LADA diagnosis is a positive GAD test, which you have had, and the ability to produce your own insulin, which you are. You 'must' therefore be LADA. Somebody please correct me if my conclusion is wrong. I would question your dr what effect the medication you are taking has. My consultant advised me to stop taking all medication, because he felt that they would likely make the pancreas beta cells die off more quickly.... The medication will act Like squeezing a sponge he said, once squeezed there will be nothing left. But it seems now one really knows. You will probably find Dr Bernstein's Diabetes Solution a good read. An amazing man.
