I have been diagnosed with type 2 for 4 years and been on insulin for 2 years. I am 70 years old and always had greasy or combination skin. About 2 weeks ago, I noticed that the skin on my entire body had suddenly become exceedingly dry. When I take my socks off there is a thick layer of bits of skin, and when I came to bed tonight my husband noticed there were lots of loose patches of skin on my body and chest. I have been using moisturiser which is not really helping but wonder if this is anything to worry about. Do I need to see a doctor?
