I don't really care as long as there's a treatment for it.I don't think the doctors really know anymore than we diabetics do. Whatever they need to do to keep their own records straight.I don't believe they need to term it type 1,type 1,5.type 2. We are diabetics and the treatments are different for different people,whatever works at the time and through the years.
That's what I thought. Diabetes is very common and yet everyone has different story. How can they all be pigeon holed into 2 or 3 categories. They still don't know if I'm Type I or Type 2.
