I have no other T1's in my family. Not immediate and not distant. The only genetic link I can come up with is that my mum had hyper-thyroidism as a child, which developed into hypo-thyroidism after having children (apparently this can happen).
Is the autoimmune connection really a thing, or could it all be a coincidence? Are your siblings who don't have an autoimmune disease ever concerned or take precautions?
