A well known cause for the increase in DB2 was Very strong ANTIBIOTICS.
I am sure a number of other very strong medicines contribute to start the problem around the immune system.
In my case ,which is now pretty severe ,the liver area is also the problem.
Most people posting on this forum do not understand the technicalities of how the body process of using
insulin is not mechanic in nature,Unless you realize it switches on and off at times.
This is very often the cause of non regular readings.Just ask an Endiocryonologist.
I can actual trace my own history to the turning point and also few others who used antibiotics.
Surprisingly i found the particular brand I took was withdrawn from use not very long afterwards
and I was even warned by the chemist before taking it .
Though I did not have much choice at the time.
I agree that genetics are also a major factor ,Most of the wimp like diabetic people posting their scores
as though this site seem to use it as a facebook or twitter page and are near normal with readings so low
that if I ever got down to their norm I would be hypo./
The official very flexible pre diabetic figures have been lowered historically
and a good percentage of poor diet and overweight people now categorized
as DB2 so they are getting a broadside about their poor diet and lifestyle.That is a good thing.
Sadly mine was almost tuned to create a diabetic situation with shift work, stress (yes I am married joking
)
high energy diet.
Their are obvious reasons why the medical industry does not want this cause to be public knowledge but having
spent a lot of time studying and discussing with insiders and analyzing the reasons people within the medical
make statements.DB It is not the only area in this industry that has a finger of suspicion pointing...
The whole DB area is under the control of the medicine industry not the NHS? & Doctors.
Thats life ?
