Your Path to Type 1.5 diagnosis Hi Everyone:
I'm curious about your path to the diagnosis of Type-1.5. Why? As a diagnosed Pre-Diabetic with a normal, albeit low-normal, C-Peptide reading of 1.3 I have the feeling that, over time I'm going to be chaning my Type heading.
I'm interested in your story of how the medical professionals finally figured out you aren't a Type-2. Was there a particular test done, a change of MD, some pivotal act in the journey that sealed the diagnosis?
Many of you already know me from other posts so I won't bother with my usual self-introduction when I first post on a new sub-forum.
