What is diabetes type 1.5?

Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA), or Type 1.5 diabetes, is a slow-progressing autoimmune form of diabetes often misdiagnosed as Type 2. It occurs when the immune system destroys insulin-producing pancreatic cells. While it shares characteristics with Type 2 (adult onset, managed initially with diet/pills), it is actually a form of Type 1, and eventually requires insulin.
