Interesting 🙂 I wonder if they'd like to study me? 🙂 For those who don't know, consultants have been unable to classify my type of diabetes. I was diagnosed Type 1 but after 4 years started producing sufficient endogenous insulin to allow me to stop using basal insulin. I don't fit any of the MODY profiles and I'm definitely not Type 2 🙂 I'm not, however, unique, as I have known of around half a dozen similar experiences among members here over the years.

You ARE the cure Northie! We need to extract your indestructible-auto-regenerating beta cells and clone them.

I’m sure it would be a very minor procedure... 😱😱😱
