Hi, after being diagnosed as Type 2 4 & 1/2 years ago, not being able to get good control and trying several meds, Pancreatitis Insufficiency has now been mentioned.
My blood sugar is always high (6-9) in the morning before breakfast, then hypo between breakfast and lunch, (2-4) then high after lunch (9) and gradually getting higher towards bedtime (9-12).
Dietician says I am eating the right things, good diet, etc. but my cholesterol is like a heavy drinkers (hardly ever drink) I'm allergic to statins and have multiple food allergies so on a limited diet and cook virtually everything from scratch.
I have just been diagnosed with borderline Crohn's and waiting for results of a Sechat scan for Bile Acid Malabsorption, have a sigmoidoscopy next week to look for ulcerative colitis.
Is pancreatic insufficiency the same things as Diabetes Type 3 C?
Do my symptoms fit?
I am 39 and have no close relatives with Type 2 or any of the 'risk factors', have always eaten healthily, haven't changed my diet since diagnosis as there was nothing to change really, and I don't really understand how I could be type 2.
Also, with the Crohn's, etc., I have lost nearly three stone and my diabetes has not improved.... Surely if it was type 2 this would have had an impact on blood sugar levels??
Thankyou for reading
