Good to all.I debuted a month ago and since then use Lantus 8 units before sleeping and novorapid before food about 3 units depending on the glycemia of the moment.The question is that I come to give me the analyzes where I have reviewed the C peptide and antibodies.The basal C peptide has been 0.92 and after injecting 1.32 glucagon (I understand that it is rather low) but the antibodies have come out negative.My endocrine says that I am type 1 and that although it has come out negative many times and does not believe it necessary to review other markers.The question is whether is something more or less normal to give negative in the antibody test even being type 1?Do you know any similar experience?Thank you very much and you are of great help for the people who start in this complicated world. A hug
They also gave me negative and I am type 1, very clear as they told me, especially because my "debut" was sudden and with a ketoacidosis that had me in the UVI 3 days.
My daughter was given negative.And a fulminant diabetes with 5 years, is self -immune by force.So there must be antibodies that do not have analyzed yet ..
Hi @Rack_R_R welcome to my club! We are two very similar cases.I have been diabetic for almost three years, peptide C of 1.96 and without antibodies, but mother hypothy and with psoriastic rheumatoid titris (let's go an autoimmune pump), so we are in a diabets 1 or a ladof slower progress.I also tell my new endocrine than diabetes1 that debut too late are usually slower and less aggressive (although it should not be generalized).I have been with 8 points from Lantus per day and Humalog Mix for this time for specific meals (with paste, rice or dessert .. We go the days of excess).For what you want to ask me, I will be delighted.
