But Wiccy says she is diet controlled which doesn't quite stack up. I always thought Type 1 indicated that most if not all the insulin producing cells of the pancreas have been destroyed.

But I could be wrong/ill informed!! 🙂

Welcome to the forum Wiccy, in the meantime.

Andy 🙂

p.s. I am most decidedly un-spiritual Wiccy. I much prefer hard facts and scientific investigation. But each to their own! 🙂

Hi Andy, Wiccy has put down Type 1, even though she is unsure of what type she is at the moment. I'm sure I posted to Rob about the this, well...........I think I did, I will go now and find out where I put it😱 Sheena

I've now read the posts in the other thread. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what type you'll be in the end, Wiccy.

Thanks, Sheena.

I think on Wiccy's other thread about diet, we've more or less established (sort of) that she probably is type 2.

I'm not sure that that sentence adheres strictly to the scientific method, but it has a leanign towards it. :D

It is fast becoming more confusing with just the 2 main types and type 1.5 sandwiched between, when newly diagnosed diabetics are showing that there is a whole range of types. I wonder if they'll redefine soon to reflect the different flavours.

We'd NEVER do that Andy :D (but maybe a bit of speculation here and there 🙄).
