Hello All,
I am wondering if anyone else has had experience with being wrongly diagnosed?
i got diagnosed in April 2016 with type 2 and i can't help but wonder if i have been wrongfully diagnosed. from what my diabetic team have told me Type 2 comes on gradually over time which is correct with what i have also read but before i was diagnosed after having a lumbar puncture - two maybe 3 months before that i had a blood test and nothing shown up to suggest diabetes. From what i have read and been told once again Type 1 comes on suddenly in children and in adults it can take a month or two and i can't help but wonder if i am actually type 1 and not two as none of the medication i have been given to treat type 2 is working. i am on yet another course of medication which isn't working so i want to know if anyone else has ever been wrongfully diagnosed?
thank you
