you are quite correct.there are many doctors who can learn from this article.==Improvement of article==

This article was in dire need of clarification on the differences and similarites between type 1, type 2, and latent autoimmune diabetes (LADA). I added substantial material including diagnostic testing to help differentiate between the three forms of diabetes and references. Later, when I have time I will also hyperlink diabetes terms to Wiki's definitions.

Hopefully, what is now present in this majorly revamped article, will serve as a solid backbone for others to continue to improve upon (if needed.

I really hope to see this article stay because millions of adults are misdiagnosed as having type 2 diabetes but have LADA and end up insulin dependent for life. It would help many adults to know that not all type 2 diagnosis are correct. Islets of Hope 06:53, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
