Will, I was just given your blog address while chatting in the Parents Chat @ Childrenwithdiabetes.com. I had asked about the Gardian and when it would be available for under 18 yrs of age. My daughter Evangeine is 9 now and was dx'd three weeks after her 2nd birthday as type 1. She is n a pump and her numbers are good but we want one. Also I was very interested in your incorrect Dx's. My husband tested positive for the GAD anti-body, which they say causes type 1, his C-pet is 2.7,which says he has insulin resistance but his blood sugars only run upto 135-150 sometimes. He is part of two studies. They have called him type 1 and 1/2! I am gonna print out your blog to read, it's very long, but what are some entries specific to the Gardian and your mis-dx?
Thank you so much.

Carole--
I try to talk about the Guardian in nearly every post, that's sort of become the mission. I often wander off on tangents, but most posts have a lot of solid info about the system woven in.
My miss DXs have more to do with the lack of good health care in my state than any unusual circumstance. I got T-1 late in life and I was over weight at the time. It was only natural for my general doc to assume I was T-2. To his credit when things got out of hand he turned me over to an endo. She figured I was 1.5 based on, well, hell, I don't remember on what basis.
Then we got some sort of test back that showed not a drop of insulin was being produced by my body. She said, "congratulations, you've been promoted to a Type 1." At each DX and scoured the internet for info about "my" condition!
