That is to say, could it be a result of the mother/father being too cautious in how she/he cared for their child?
My partner has had Type 1 since he was 8 years old (he is now 24). My sister was diagnosed at 16. My partner was breastfed until he was two, my sister until she was a year and a half.
Both were fed nothing but healthy foods and were made to join some form of sport.
In short, both were raised “right”. Could this have contributed to having an over-active immune system?

I think I might have diabetes. I’m going to go to the doctor real soon. Until then I have a question i’d like answered. Can anyone tell me, that has type 1 diabetes, what lead you to believe you have it, like i researched a little bit and most of the things said alot of time people get had an illness of some sort that triggered it or something. Any help is greatly appreciated. Sorry about the bad grammar and punctuation.
I’ve just been told I may have diabetes [I wasn't told what type but it must be type 1 because I'm only 16 and I have a BMI of 18.5 so I'm obviously not overweight, so it has to be type 1]. I can’t see my doctor for another week, and I really need to know. I can’t order anything online, and I live too far from any drugstores to be able to get there. Is there anything I can do?
