The health of people with diabetes is being put at risk due to the failure of doctors to recognise which type of diabetes they have, according to a study published in Diabetes Care.

  • Researchers discovered that up to 97.3% of people who have previously experienced pancreatic disease are misdiagnosed, typically with type 2 diabetes, rather than the correct condition type 3c.
  • Such a misdiagnosis impacts on the treatment offered to patients, with those suffering from type 3c diabetes requiring insulin therapy more urgently than those with type 2 diabetes. Delays in delivering the appropriate treatment can have devastating long term effects for patients with type 3c diabetes with nerve, eye and kidney damage all possible consequences.
  • The researchers were also surprised to find that adults were more likely to develop type 3c diabetes than type 1 diabetes.

I'm a type 2 diabetic and it's very well controlled with metformin. I've studied diabetes for years and it's only very recently that I've heard of type 3c diabetes. I believe type 3c is a new category for diabetes.
