[QUOTE="Hunya, post: 402264, member: 76353"] Thank you for the link, which is exactly the page which brought me to this forum. I hope it was of interest to you. It does not answer my question, which is: What units are GAD antibody tests measured in? The scale goes fro 0 to 2000 and I am above that range. I need to know what units the test is conducted in. It must be 2000 units of something (e.g. millimoles per litre or something). I do not want to be guessing such vital information. I have written to the hospital and the Head of Department responded without answering the question. This is not rocket science. Any quantitative scientific research like this must be conducted in units. Somebody at Diabetes UK must know how the GAD antibody test is unitized. I would be most grateful if they could tell me because it will feed into whether and how I manage type 1 diabetes, which prior to the GAD antibody test was misdiagnosed as type 2 for four years. Many thanks Hunya [/QUOTE]
