Hi. This is a random add on about the identical twin thing. Did you mean in the study that this article was about? Or do you mean in general, because it’s only 30-50% of the other identical twin who goes on to develop DM1 after the other has it (90% if it’s type2)

No prob. There was something niggling at the back of my head that type 2 was higher than type 1 in identical twins both getting it, so I needed to check it myself.
