[QUOTE="K_Bowley, post: 2069981, member: 507263"] Just another update: I got out of hospital yesterday afternoon. It turned out I was in DKA and at A&E my ketones were so high it could not show on the meter. Through fixed amounts of insulin and fluids, my ketones went fine to 0.6. Then on Thursday early morning I threw up in hospital and they did another ketones check and it had raised again to 2.4 and then again I was put on fixed insulin and fluids. My ketones was done to 0.2 a couple of hours later. I am now on 12 units of nonorapid at meal times and 28 units of Lantus at nighttime. The doctors are testing me for GAD antibodies, but when I left hospital the results weren’t back yet. So it’s still in the open whether I’m type 1 or type 2. They believe it’s type 1. [/QUOTE]
