[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 83291, member: 12578"] A well known problem with some young type 1s (often women) is a failure to take sufficient insulin... often restricting it for weight reduction. I have read far too many personal accounts of the consequences, sometimes just a few years later, not be convinced that it causes harm .Here is a piece of research to demonstrate it. [url]http://www.healthandage.com/public/health-center/29/article/3314/Insulin-restriction-may-be-fatal.html[/url] Someone with LADA,is perhaps in a similar position to type 1s restricting insulin, they have some but not enough to keep BD in a safe range. I know I'm repeating myself but I ignored LADA for a while (through ignorance) and ended up having no option, actually the hospital didn't even ask they just started insulin treatment, the alternative was diabetic coma.I now have an excellent quality of life. Incidently there is some evidence that insulin can help preserve the life of beta cells in LADA. [url]http://www.ki.se/org/5thIDS/LADASymposium.htm[/url] (Tokyo study) [/QUOTE]
