I thought I'd just post this that I found. I was trying to find out about the honey moon period and this seems to fit with what you've described.

Often, there is a honeymoon or grace period that may occur a short time after the onset of diabetes. It commonly starts within two to eight weeks, although not all people have this honeymoon period. During the honeymoon, sugar production is turned off in the liver and a fair bit of insulin is still being made in the islet cells in the pancreas. This is a time when people often think they don’t have diabetes. They may be attracted to miracle cures. The honeymoon period may last a few weeks to a few years. During this time, the body may not need much extra insulin. After this period, the body will again need more insulin, although small amounts of insulin may still be made by some. We advise our patients to continue their morning insulin during the grace period, even though they may not need the evening dose. We know from experience that the body will again need more insulin. Usually with growth, illness or stress there may be a need for more insulin. This need may be evident when the morning blood sugars start to be above the desired range
