[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 507112, member: 21149"] Hi. You seem to have had some good support and some a bit more typical of diabetes GPs. At least they did a GAD and c-peptide. My guess might be the possibility of double diabetes? This is where you have insulin resistance due to being overweight and there is separate failing of the islet cells. Your other health problems may also be relevant and ,yes, there is MODY and a few other rare diabetes types. If you can gradually get your weight down thru low-carbing it will make it easier to resolve any remaining high blood sugar. I suspect once your weight is in the normal range you may still need some pancreas prodding tablets or back to low-dose insulin [/QUOTE]
