LADA (latent Autoimmune Diabetes In Adults): The first 90 days (Type 1 Diabetes)

You weren't supposed to get this sick. You ate reasonably. You exercised. And then the diagnosis came, and suddenly, nothing you'd been told made sense anymore.This workbook was written for someone navigating insulin resistance, a new diabetes diagnosis, or the metabolic chaos that arrives with hormonal shifts. It was written by someone who lived it.At 44, I was diagnosed with LADA — a slow-progressing form of autoimmune diabetes that most physicians miss and most patients are never prepared for.
