Sunny morning all!
When I was first sent to hospital, extreme thirst, weight loss, sugar in urine etc. I was put a saline drip, oodles of blood taken. They couldn't decide if I was type 1 or type 2 so they decided to treat it "aggressively" ie insulin from day 2. Now I'm not although quite sure that I've been told that's Type 1. Total insulin basal + bolus is about 14 units per day.
I've heard about the honeymoon period but here's the question eventually, sorry about the ramble. What's the difference between type1 honeymoon and LADA?
