[QUOTE="ert, post: 2075545, member: 504712"] They may have different rules in NZ but it would be very difficult to get a referral for a c-peptide test on the NHS unless they assume diagnostic uncertainty and other high-risk areas. They consider the specialist opinion (required to get a c-peptide test) if: ⁻ Age > 50 years but BMI <25 OR family history of immune disease ⁻ Age >25 but rapid progression to insulin ⁻ Age < 25 and BMI > 25 with Type 2 diabetes ⁻ Suspected monogenic / atypical / pancreatic diabetes. EllieM, How did they diagnose you as type 1? [URL]https://www.england.nhs.uk/rightcare/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2018/07/nhs-rightcare-pathway-diabetes.pdf[/URL] [/QUOTE]
