[QUOTE="sally and james, post: 1313413, member: 93504"] Well, I've just googled it and come up with the following. I guess it will be fairly obvious to you if you do have it. "Mauriac syndrome is characterized by dwarfism, obesity and hepatomegaly in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. It is associated with poor control of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in adolescents, and may present as obesity, hepatomegaly, cushingoid facies and elevated transaminases.[[URL='https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3743389/#ref1']1[/URL]] It is typically associated with growth failure and delayed pubertal maturation, which should alert the physician over insufficient management of diabetes mellitus and the related development of Mauriac syndrome, although these can be reversed with good glycemic control.[[URL='https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3743389/#ref2']2[/URL]]" It came from this link, [URL]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3743389/[/URL] If it does sound like you (and it is said to be rare), note the last bit about reversal with good glycemic control. Very best wishes, Sally [/QUOTE]
