[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 1981003, member: 480869"] Hi, welcome to the forum. As you rightly say we in here can not diagnose you and at least you’re having the relevant tests to be sure which it is. Take a good look around some of the other sub groups too. Lots of knowledge and experience in here for sure It does indeed look to me a novice when it come to type 1 that is the more likely but I’m sure others much more knowledgeable in such things will be along soon. Sadly even amongst professionals there is disagreement and a lack of current knowledge in some. If you do turn out to be type 2 then don’t despair at a change of medication. Indeed as a type two there are lifestyle and diet changes (low carb) that may help, perhaps enormously, that aren’t always options for type 1’s in the same way. Try and hold out for the test results and once you have all the information then make plans from there. Perhaps he’s just being thorough (a good thing) but not expressing himself clearly enough to not concern you. [/QUOTE]
