Buddy:

I am pretty sure I had the mumps after being diagnosed. Since I was
originally diagnosed at the age of 5 (over  42 years ago), I can't be sure
of all the details ;-) But I think I am among the group who had the mumps
after diagnosis.

Hmmm, sounds like there is another acronym brewing here ....... IDDMMAD
Insulin Dependent Diabetes Melitus Mumps After Diagnosis ;-)
