Hi @cott97 , yes, there are studies now showing stress, lack of sleep etc do pose a factor in type 2 developing.Would totally agree. I don't think I've heard of any research suggesting chronic pain might be a risk factor for type 2 diabetes. I also think your diabetes has to be at certain levels with pain before it takes precedence over the pain.
I think this is how I developed type 2. Pain, stress, lack of sleep and over indulging in treats as compensation
I have watched a few BBC 4 programs, particularly a presenter called Dr Michael Mosely (I think that's right, Mosely is right)
He does programs for BBC and uses himself as a guinea pig in lots of different experiments.
Very informative programs, if you use BBC iPlayer you might be able to find something... I remember one called "Sleep"
