Individuals having LADA progress from having to use oral medications to having to use insulin between three and fifteen years following so-called Type 2 diagnoses. In contrast to LADA, 10% to 29.9% of those with real Type 2 use certain insulin medicines; ALL Type 1s use insulin RIGHT from diagnoses. LADA, though, begins differently than Types One and Two: it has insulin resistance matching Type 2, though hits people REGARDLESS of skinny or overweight-obese.

People with Latent Autoimmune carry the exact same complication risk as those with Type 2-stroke, heart attacks and heart disease. Contrary to popular beliefs, some people who have LADA ARE overweight or obese. Furthermore, some people do carry family history of diabetes, regardless of the actual type. Latent Autoimmune usually begins between age 21 to 65, and carries serious issues like any other Diabetes.

Contrary to popular belief, some people with LADA have body mass indexes between 24 and 34.9. In other words, some people with LADA may be overweight or obese. LADA occurs in people age 20 and older. LADA is often mistaken for type 2 diabetes, mainly in people who are overweight or obese. People with LADA can use oral medication, though within between 3-15 years after diabetes diagnosis, they will need to inject insulin.

Numerous studies point out the connection between insulin resistance and LADA. The primary reason that I'm writing this is due to the fact there are some people I know - one person is Billie: she worked at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. She was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes in Jun 2008, although more likely she carries LADA. The reason I say is because for many people, Type 2 will eventually turn into Type 1, according to her.

I take (2) 500mg of metformin at breakfast and supper. I also take powder welchol at supper. I would like to take my 1000mg of Januvia at bedtime to help lower my morning blood sugar readings that usually run in the 150's to 160, Any cons to taking the Januvia without food at bedtime?

//www.diabetesmonitor.com/lada.htm Type 1.5 - http://tinyurl.com/type-1-5 Ask your "new" doctor to test your pancreas insulin production. The test is called C-Peptide. http://diabetes.webmd.com/c-peptide While you're at it have your thyroid checked too. An irregular functioning thyroid will disrupt your pancreas insulin production. The test is called TSH [Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone]. http://www.webmd.

i m asking as haw the use of sitaglipin help in conlrolling the sugar levels.

To add to Zoe, here's a link explaining LADA and the various tests [C-Peptide, ICA, GAD, and IAA] and treatments. http://en.wikipedia.

I would love to have those numbers.. i have to workout like crazy and eat very little to get close to those and thats also with taking another med with the metformin. I would say something is very wrong with what they are trying to do.

The levothyroxine has a long half-life within the blood and may also be withheld for 3 to 4 days without significant changes observed. The Januvia and blood pressure meds you shouldn’t mess around with, so the experiment may not be performed completely. . While you may think the diet has nothing to do with it, but I think investigating would be better than pure recall. You could try to make a log of things she eats and again try to make changes there depending on which foods seem suspect.

Been on januvia for a week. Blood sugar is not going below 120 ...and as high as 250. Was on glyburide. Had trouble with BS dropping as low as 40. Doc thought I would do better with this drug. I have only one kidney so was prescribed a 50mg dose. Will it regulate after I have been on for awhile?

While in the hospital for heart related problems my doctors found that I had the D word. I refuse to accept this as I have worked so hard to avoid having the D word. I was sent home with a monitor which I refuse to use (no fear of needles just using the monitor means acceptance). I am on Januvia 50 mg and Amaryl 1mg. My doctor told me to eat 3 meals a day plus a snack at bed time. I have lived by the Atkins diet and don't eat carbs and don't care for sweets.

So here is the thing been diabetic for you a few months now and i have been through alot of pills and my doctor hasn't keeps upping them i seen him today and he gave me insulin to take.. but he still wants me to take all the pills is it to much it would be 1000mg metformin 2x a day 100mg januvia a day 4mg glilmapride 2x a day 20units of lantus this seems like so much what do you all think?

Question your diagnosis, especially if you are younger, normal weight or less, have lost significant weight recently, have been on oral meds for less than 4 years and are told you now need insulin, or have an autoimmune disorder such as Thyroid. The tests to differentiate between Type II and Type 1 (LADA) are a c-peptide and antibody tests. The second thing you need to do is learn about the affect of diet and nutrition on blood glucose.

It is pretty amazing that you can manage on just diet and exercise if you were a LADA, but if you worked hard at it (I never did) and it hasn't been that long since diagnosis, I guess it is possible.

I have been on Metformin, Januvia and Glimeperide for a few years. They are not controlling my diabetes. She wanted me to try Victoza and give up the Januvia. I got over fear of giving myself the shot, but on the 3rd day I began to get sick. On the 4th and 5th days I couldn't even go to work. Changed shot to before bed instead of morning and it made no difference. After a little over a week I stopped it. Lost 5 lbs cause I couldn't eat anything.

What does this sound like, and what can I do about it? I am a Type 2 Diabetic, and take Metformin, Januvia, and Zoloft for anxiety.

Actually, Sally, I looked it up after I posted and found that both types can experience DP so we both learned something! I'm LADA and don't have it at all and it's all too easy to base things on your own experience. (Plus since people don't know that much about LADA(1.5) they do tend to assign all unfamiliar symptoms to us!

This, in addition to normal body weight and early progression of your diabetes could indicate LADA. Tests to get would be the GAD65 antibody test which is present in type 1's (LADAs) and not Type II. Also a c-peptide test could show how much insulin your body is currently producing. Let us know how it goes. You don't want to stay high like that for too long.

Most articles I read, prior to your link above, on the Dawn Effect, talked about adjusting insulin or medication and since I am on neither, I was not sure it really would relate to me. Also, most articles on LADA talk about folks that are not obese and don't have a family history of diabetes (I am and I do, though at the grandparent level). But I realize that it doesn't say you can't have that history and have LADA anyway...

t look at the potential of you being a LADA [latent autoimmune diabetes in adults] patient, also known as type 1.5 diabetes. Here is a Google search on type 1.5 and lada. See if you can relate http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hs=vu8&ei=QM8uStisMqWEtAPOorTCCA&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=type+1.

A lot of doctors have not been made aware or just do not know how to treat LADA. Frequent testing before meals and after meals to see how foods affect your blood glucose is a must. Bad carbs and starches are bad guys so pay strict attention to the intake. Do you have a home glucose meter? Get one if you don't. Several can be had OTC. Post back if you need to know test times. A frequent poster, Zoelula, is a LADA, and has worked hard to figure out the disease and how to manage it.

However, do be sure you have the correct diagnosis, as LADA/1.5 is often misdiagnosed as Type 2 because people with LADA are able to maintain on oral meds for awhile.

They told me 45 carbs for meals and 2 snacks @ 15 carbs each. Everything is low fat and no sugar, whole grains. No pasta or rice. I try to keep them to complex carbs. How do I get my PCM to refer me to get the typing test? When I was first diagnosed her response was oh it's most likely type 2. I'm 5'7" and am not even close to being overweight.

hello every- my dad recently had a stress test that he failed- they sent him to get his arteries checked and found that two of them were clogged. he just got a stent placed and they gave him different medication. My dad already is a type 2 diabetic.
