[QUOTE="urbanracer, post: 2216775, member: 140811"] Some non-diabetics can test positive for GAD Some T1's don't test positive, it isn't conclusive. I guess you are familiar with the honeymoon phase. The theory suggests that when you start taking insulin it gives your pancreas a rest and it can start to produce a little of it's own insulin again. You may be experiencing something similar if you have gone low carb as this will take the pressure off your system to make a lot of insulin. To be regularly spiking (by more than 2mmol) after eating is thought to be bad for health and eyesight especially but significant hard data is difficult to find. I was 54 when I got my T1 diagnosis, so a similar age to yourself. In later life T1 may develop more slowly than it would in the child and teenage years. [/QUOTE]
