Abstract:
We present the case of a 29.5-year-old girl with Down's syndrome, type 1 diabetes mellitus (DMT1), autoimmune thyroiditis and celiac disease starting on insulin pump therapy. After 22-month follow-up hemoglobin A1c dropped from 9% to 6.8%, even with a lower insulin requirement and no change in BMI.
