Welcome...there are some very well informed people on this board who will give you a lot of info. Being diagnosed at 16 is a bit unusual--was there a particular reason why the vet checked her? Has she been ill? My own Tucson, was diagnosed at age 4-5 after a few days of not eating like she usually does & looking real "pale".
