Hi All. Another question.

Since the nurse told me I could very well be T1 actually. (Maybe maybe not.) I have been thinking about it. Are there tests to determine either way? Or do I just have to wait in case my numbers start going up?

Not really overly concerned but just a general question.
 
There are the GAD and C-peptide tests to confirm insulin and antibodies, also HbA1c to determine your average blood sugar reading within the last 3 months. It's the case of asking your GP if you could get them done.
