[QUOTE="Kailee56, post: 2035293, member: 437516"] I agree with further testing. I’m in the USA. I had some test results that seemed off to me. In order to get further tests done, which eventually led to an accurate diagnosis, I had to offer to pay for the testing myself. There are sites here that let you order your own labs independently, but I needed a prescription for those specific labs. I don’t know where you are, but if your physician will not agree to further testing, offering to pay out of pocket might get you the authorization to have them done. I would rather pay a bit up front to get an accurate diagnosis and treatment, than pay later with more complications. The honeymoon period is quite variable. I’ve read 0-10 years from time of diagnosis. I also seem to recall some saying it could even be longer. I’ve also NOT read if that estimate includes the time from inaccurate diagnosis as T2 to an accurate diagnosis of LADA or not. Good luck in July. BTW, though not always the most accurate, I love my Libre. [/QUOTE]
