[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1630141, member: 196898"] As far as I am aware the IF in the quoted section is only a hypothesis, and is not yet shown to be the mechanism at play. There may be insulin toxicity, but if this is the case, then I would expect those who are ID would show this, but the predominant effect of too much insulin is generally hypo which is how deaths are probably recorded as COD. I am not a T1D, but I am not aware of a long term effect due solely to the insulin. Diabetic coma is a result of extremes of hyper and hypo glycocaemia. [/QUOTE]
