I’m new to this. It’s really tough. I shouldn’t
be snce my mother and grandparents are (were)
diabetics. Medical problems suck. I’m so depressed. As all
of you must have been or are. Good luck and
thanks.

Dear Jeff, I really do not know what your doctor
was thinking 2 and a half years ago I was sicker than
a dog for 6 weeks went to an emergency room twice
and family doc twice, finally went to a different doc
who seeing me in my weakened state immediatly sent me
to the hospital and diagnosed me with keto acidosis
which is what made me so weak I am also type 2
diabetic, it is rare but it can happen , trust me I was
there. Deb C

DKA is normally seen in type ones and you’re not
alone in the misdiagnosis. Doctors are still thinking
“Inside the box” and they see someone over twenty five
and thirty, and think “OH! Type 2! Here’s your pills,
buh-bye!” In reality, many type 2’s may well have been type
ones and were mistreated all this time. you’re on the right track and hope now you’ll be around
for a long time.

Jeff, I hope things continue well for you, and glad that the second doctor
showed up when he did.
