I was diagnosed only a few yrs ago which was about a year after finding out that I had very high iron levles (I have the potential for hemochromotosis) and my endo says that some studies suggest a link between high iron and diabetes. Just six months ago, my D levels took a dive, so now I'm taking pills daily. My endo forgot to request a test on my D levels for this past visit, so I will not know for another couple of months if the daily pill has helped. I agree that diabetes teaches you a lot about things that you don't necessarily want to know, but must learn since diabetes can effect most major organs if not kept in control.
