MODY Tests

So I got an email and phone call from my endo today. My GAD and IAC were normal! Yea! Despite, the fact that I am attacking my own thyroid I am not attacking my own pancreas! My redo C-peptide tests also indicates that I still have a fair amount of pancreatic function as well...Yippie! At fasting it was 1.2 and 2-hours later is was 4.2. My endo feels strongly, however, that I am not Type II and thinks the lingering high blood sugars tend to lean more toward MODY. She is referring me to the genetic department where they will run about 6 tests at $600 a pop to see if I am MODY! Thank goodness for health insurance!
