What a mess

What happens people ??How have the holidays and the first month of the year go?

You will see, I appeared in this forum literally makes 2-3 months with a diagnosis of DM 1, since then diet, abasaglar and novorapid to control blood glucose.I have gone to three reviews since then, three.

Well, it has not been until a couple of days ago that my endocrinI had no 5min to solve doubts).

Total that in a bad way and soon it tells me that I have to take half metformin (850mg) pill every day after a meal and that after ten days go to a daily tablet.

It didn't make me anything clear if I have to continue with the novorapid, they have not told me about the count of hydrates rations and much less the diet (I continue with a role of when I started putting examples of meals that I have to avoid, nothing more).

The only thing that has told me is that the abasaglar did not take it off or with a pussy, to continue as until now and little else.

Total that in the end the mine points to that it is a DM 2, but they did not confirm it because apparently the endocrine seemed strange that a 21 -year -old thin kid appeared a DM 2.

Basically;that I am more lost than a maricon at a fair (with forgiveness of the expression) and I am already starting to get to get to get to you do not throw myself in bed and cry until I sleep because the truth is that this last review was shame;STILL, FAST AND WITHOUT GIVING ME TAKE TO SAKE MY DOUBTS.

How do you see it?Is it normal?Has something similar happened to you?

PD: I emphasize that I am very new to this and I know that I lose patience and nerves very fast, but all this is looking for me xD

@Guns4Bones, my advice is that you go to "patient care" and requests to meet with a specialist or at least with the diabetological nurse.It exaggerates if it is necessary and said, for example, that this situation causes you a lot of anxiety and does not let you sleep.
Something similar happened to me more than 40 years, I was your age and it was a "brown."I passed the insulin to the pills and, after a time of very bad control (at that time you "controlled" with urine strips) they paw me insulin again.It goes from being type 1 diabetic unless it is and finally to be again.Anyway, a medical care disaster

Not having antibodies is very well.
Taking metformin with 21 years, it doesn't make me funny.You are forcing the pancreas to produce more insulin (although it is assumed that the one you produce is of worse quality, that someone non -diabetic).
I continued with insulin, always tries to fall short with the doses.Your body will compensate, producing some insulin.
And learn a lot from diet, nutrition and what rations and equivalences are.
It is very complicated and at the same time very easy to learn, little by little.
I do not know if in all communities there is the right to a second medical opinion, in Andalucia, yes.Although no one does it due to ignorance.
Go to another endocrine, fight not to be referred to the family doctor.
Type2 do not reach the endocrine, and it seems that you have a type 2 or a lada ... search on Google 😊.
Much encouragement, if you live near an association of diabetics, arrive.
You can change your life better, meet young people with diabetes, someone who has already passed through all that tells you.

What I see basic is that they look at you the C peptide (which I do not know if it will be in your analytics) to see if your pancreas produces insulin.Because if it does not produce it, the reason does not matter, it does not matter if you have antibodies or not (as is my case) you need it external.And if it produces it is something else.If it produces but there is resistance, metformin is usually good.
And above all, that treatments must be put on that.
It is true that you are not even fat, as you say to be type 2. But there are strange situations without explanation in diabetes.Or you may also have some antibody that you have not looked at you.
Have you given a sensor or glucometer?How are you going on results?
In short, as they tell you, get them to see you again, to look at you the C peptide and with that you see your treatment.And if you have to put insulin that they explain well, that in this disease there is a lot to learn.Here we can help you but once you know what kind of diabetes you have.
Ask for a second medical opinion, say that you are having a very bad time, that you are not clear and need it.Good luck

Hello!My case was more or less similar ...
I debuted 3 years ago, at first they told me that by age (29 years at that time) it could be a type 1 but that they would do more tests, then the antibodies came out negative so I was with oral medication of type 2 diabetes during yearand peak.In the next review my glycosilada was going up instead of going down, so they also put me insulin of slow action.
Today they tell me that my diagnosis does not meet all the requirements of type 1 or type 2 and that it seems that my type of diabetes is the mody type, which is a rare type of diabetes that affects very little very littlepeople.
The good thing is that now with insulin and oral medication I have very good control, my last HG was less than 6, that is, values ​​of non -diabetic person.
Your type of diabetes may be diabetes too, read on Google on the subject, investigate, you may find several similarities with your case.

Ask for a second opinion.
If you are measuring with glucometer you can see if the pill covers you or not

The truth is that your case is very strong, let's see, I understand that this is something that was "more common" before but still seems fatal to me.

Sometimes I feel that even the healthy healthcare takes importance to this disease, as if it were not chronic and my life did not depend on knowing it well and treating it accordingly ...

I really appreciate your comment and the spirits and I stay in pictures knowing that there are more types of diabetes apart from the already well -known DM1 and DM2, I suppose it is normal because until 3 months ago it was "one more" and I did not worry about knowing aboutWhat the pussy is diabetes.

I will look at what I can find and see if it fits with my case.

They told me that the analytics was to see the C peptide and in theory my pancreas continues to work.

Currently I use a lifetime glucometer but I also have the freestyle sensor and it is supposed to have such low levels that the endocrine was rethinking if mine was a diabetes.My estimated HG is 5.6% that is supposed to be a non -diabetic level.

I am super confused because they have not resolved any doubt, the truth that I see very feasible what you have told me now;Ask for second opinion.

For now with slow insulin and metformin is not going wrong at all, I still don't control the peaks, but otherwise I don't go too bad (I think, I don't know anything Lol).

I also sign up the new type of diabetes that you have discovered and investigate a little more to see what I find.I hope to find an endocrine to solve the doubts well and to leave me more or less clear what my diagnosis is.

I will do that.

About the pill ... well, most of the time I have to click at least one unit of the fast because if it doesn't happen to me.

It is that food peaks with pills are almost impossible to control.
The Diabetes Mody with your circumstances block me.Investigate and study you well.Hopefully you are soon calm with a correct diagnosis.

Hello, I see that you talk about antibodies, can you explain please?
Thank you.

Because the antibodies are those that cause type1 diabetes, which is autoimmune disease.Your own body destroys the beta cells of the pancreas and that causes diabetes.
In type 2 there is no.Beta cells are lost due to overwhelming of the pancreas or by genetics or whatever, but not by autoimmunity.

The antibodies come out if they are type 1 diabetes yes or yes, but sometimes it is also type 1 without having antibodies, eye!
I would take into account other values ​​such as the C peptide, that is enlightening.
In addition, if it were type 2, you would have other altered values ​​such as cholesterol, triglycerides, you would be overweight, sedentary life ... and for what you accounts do not look like your case.

To be type 1 you have to have antibodies.Another thing is to be an insulin -dependent for pancreas exhaustion, as is my case, with the same treatment as a type 1, but since there are no antibodies, which is what defines type 1 (autoimmune disease), I am type 2.
What by the way, being type 2 I have the cholesterol in 125, triglycerides in 40 (yesterday I went to the endo and gave me the analytics) and I have no sedentary life or overweight of never.In type 2 if there are many different circumstances, type 1 are defined by antibodies.

@Guns4Bones for Moody you need genetic studies.It is a deficiency of the pancreas that is born with it, and accentuates the age.And of course, it is hereditary.
They are family sagas, the bisa, the abu, my boy's father and brother are all Moody.The elders died of diabetes and the brother, who survives, does not take care of almost and only use basal insulin.

Type 1, the vast majority have Ig antibodies among others.The first thing they look for for diagnosis.I think I have the 3 guys.But the rest of parameters: triglyceride, weight, etc.
