[QUOTE="caitycakes, post: 31301, member: 11420"] Hi all, When I was first diagnosed, I asked my DSN if there was an increased chance of any of my children "inheriting" my Type 1 diabetes. The answer I got was that the chance of it was so low that it was nothing to worry about. Now that my head has uncorked itself from my bahookie and I am taking control of the situation, I have started to wonder about this again. Mostly because I have realised that the info and advice given is often flawed ("eat plenty of complex carbs" being one scandalous piece of advice). Does anyone know what the incidence of children to Type 1 parents developing Type 1 themselves is? Caitycakes x [/QUOTE]
