I also have to disagree with Middnite03, there is a very distinct difference in the two types, as outlined by AMI1977. I just don't understand where type 1.5 comes into play??. If you are diagnosed as type two but not right away injecting insulin and then have to start injecting this still means you are type 2, a lot of type 2's start out this way, this NEVER makes them a type 1.
Have a look on the American Diabetes Association for clarity.
