I think there were some studies at some point indicating that severe sudden trauma can activate type 1 to someone with the predisposition.

I don’t have anything concrete to back this up. @spell that’s absolutely horrific and I’m so sorry. What a devastating thing to go through at such a vulnerable age. It must of been hell. I get you anger with life totally
