    Radiation damages the intestines and after i had Rad from my doctor recommending it, i now have celiac disease from this.

    Type 1..?

    No one knows the cause of type 1 diabetes. I was 18 when I was diagnosed, and I just caught a common viral infection prior to developing symptoms, it’s not in my family, so my belief is, there are environmental triggers, but again, nobody knows.

    Many cancer drugs are linked to diabetes. But on the other hand, you don’t have to have a diabetic history in your family to develop the disease. Many have it and never had it in their family. You don’t have to be overweight either. It could be just a coincidence. Usually for a drug to contribute to the development of diabetes, a person has had a long reqiment of the drugs…..usually at least 2 years. But there are always the exceptions.
